Please could someone help with a Tradestation query?
I am currently programming my intraday trading strategy into Tradestation with the intention of setting it to automatically trade for me throughout the day.
When setting the number of shares/contracts to buy or sell on each trade, I want this to be 1% of my equity / trading capital. In Tradestation, I can only see a way of making each trade a set number of shares, eg - 100 shares on every trade. How do I set it so that it will vary my position size as a percentage of my available equity?
Many Thanks in advance for your help.
