I read the Portfolio Trader Manual 3 times. But I don't understand.
Does the Portfolio Trader has ability of describe below?

Signal generate 10 raw order
Each trade amount = portfolio equity / 10

Signal generate 2 raw order
Each trade amount = portfolio equity / 2

Signal generate 20 raw order
Each trade amount = portfolio equity / 10
Only entry 10 raw order.

This must have the ability of raw orders count.

Hello YK,

The amount of contracts traded depends on the available funds, so if you send 20 contracts, but you have capital enough only to buy 10, then only 10 contracts will be bought.

You can use Rank Strategy in your case, as mentioned in my previous post, where you can also find its description.

So, firstly you need to set up Portfolio Settings, then set up Inputs of Portfolio Rank Strategy MM Signal (please see the attached screenshot), that should be selected as Money management signal.
In the Inputs you can set total amount of contracts, number of contracts for Long and Short trades, etc.
