how to set a quantity to buy？

[light7801]

Hi i am using the strategy builder and how can i set a quantity standard like this: i am having $1000 as my budget and i want to use up the 1000 dollars, round to the most shares i can buy?
in other words the system will calculate the correct quantity to buy by itself by exhaust the $1000 to the most. how can i code this strategy? i tried to put 1000/GetCurrentBid() into the strategy builder but it cannot recognize it. Please help me out! Thanks!!!!!!

Hi light7801, unfortunately this is not directly supported in the wizard, you could calculate the position size needed via custom coding in NinjaScript.

For an approximation of working based on margin / account size settings, you can use the 'ByAccountSize' mode to determine order qty -
