A zero ('0') is returned when the current position is flat, or if Automated Trading is not turned on.
==== Usage ====
<syntaxhighlight>MarketPosition_at_Broker</syntaxhighlight>
==== Notes ====
This function can only be used in signals and functions.
This function differs from the marketposition [[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'.
