which one from "Do not Show the Assign the Initial Market Po

Postby DTorSwing » 21 Jan 2015

I am clear about the 3td choice, but I am not clear about the two choices as to what would it do, could somone explain. thks


Do not Show the Assign the Initial Market Position at the Broker Dialogue
When this variant is selected it opens three sub variants:

Assume the Initial Market Position at the Broker is always FLAT when automation is enabled.
Example: Assume that according to your backtesting the current position is 1 contract long and your real broker position is 1 contract short. With this option you will have +1 on your chart, flat for auto trading engine within the software and -1 short at broker, when the automation is turned on.

Assume the Initial Market Position at the Broker is the SAME AS on the CHART when automation is enabled.

Use the actual position at the broker - the initial position will be the same as actual position at the broker when automation is enabled.

For SA mode (to avoid asynchronization):
  • Assume the initial market position at the broker FLAT = if your broker positon is not 0, DO NOT use this option.
  • Assume the initial market position at the broker the SAME as on the CHART = again, if your broker positon is not 0, DO NOT use this option.
  • Use the actual position at broker = best choice.
For AA mode (to avoid asynchronization):
  • Assume the initial market position at the broker FLAT = if your broker positon is not 0, DO NOT use this option. Please note that on chart you sill can see another position (visually the exeuted orders).
  • Assume the initial market position at the broker the SAME as on the CHART = if your broker positon is NOT THE SAME AS ON CHART, DO NOT use this option.
  • Use the actual position at broker = possible. Please note that on chart you sill can see another position (visually the exeuted orders).

thks Andrew.
clear now and I would use SA and 3rd choice
Use the actual position at broker = best choice
