Returns a numerical value, indicating the total number of entries for the specified position.

PosTradeCount(PosBack)

Where:

PosBack - a numerical expression, specifying the position:

0 - open position;

1 - one position back (the last position closed);

2 - two positions back, etc.

This function can only be used in signals. Please note that if there is a single entry and multiple scalping exits, each exit will have its own entry in this case and the count will increase after each partial exit.

PosTradeCount(1);

Will return a value of 2 if there were two separate entries for the most recently closed position.
