Please suggest how to round all available cash to maximum shares to trade

Hello,

I aim to make my system trade all of my available cash in IBRK account. Currently the system trades as folows:

InitialCapital+Netprofit (where InitialCapital is set manually - code below).

Unfortunately the algorithm can't calculate total net profit correctly and lots of cash is left unused. So I just want to simplify the code ,so that the system just takes all available capital and rounds to the total possible number of shares it can buy. Please kindly suggest the proper code. I am so frustrated as whater I try just doesn't seem to work.

PositionSize = InitialCapital + NetProfit; // always trades 100% of capital + netprofit made by strategy already
TradeSize = Round(PositionSize / Close[1], 0); // Round to the whole number of shares

Thank you very much and Happy New 2024!

Adi

Any suggestions please?

Hi Adi

Not sure if this will help... But it sounds like you want to take total account available equity and use ALL of it to place a position.. Though that sounds DANGEROUS (hearing danger zone song from top gun in my head right now--- also archer "danger zone")... Try using GetRTAccountEquity as a key word..

There is also GetRTUnrealizedPL to use as a keyword-- though im not sure that is what you want...

Thanks so much BB!
These are new for me, I will definitely try!
