Notes

  • This function can only be used in signals and functions. Use the i_MarketPosition_at_Broker to access it in indicators.
  • This function differs from the MarketPosition keyword in that it cannot take an argument to reference past values. By saving the value of MarketPosition_at_Broker to a Numeric Variable, it's possible to reference the position at the broker for previous bars or ticks.
  • This function can only be used with Interactive Brokers, Patsystems, and Zen-Fire.

Important

If Automated Trading was manually turned off by the user, the value returned by the keyword stops changing, and may remain unequal to '0'.

Example

MarketPosition_at_Broker
  • Will will return '17' if the current position at the broker for the strategy is 17 contracts long.
  • Will return '-132' if the current position at the broker for the strategy is 132 contracts short.
  • Will return '0' if the current position at the broker for the strategy is flat.
  • Will return '0' if the Automated Trading Mode is not turned on.
