Cash Value

[SodyTexas]

Hey everyone,

Does anyone know of any bugs when it comes to bringing in the account cash value? I use it for a position sizing algo but it seems to "sometimes" not pull in the data. I.E. when I print the cash value it "sometimes" returns 0. Other times it works.

This is the syntax I am using to bring in Cash Value.

GetAccountValue(AccountItem.CashValue)

Print(GetAccountValue(AccountItem.CashValue))

Cheers

Please check the Accounts tab and ensure there is a value reported for the account you wish to get this at that time.

Also note that a value of 0 will be returned on historical bars. To ensure you are checking the account item on real-time data, you can check if you're on historical data:

//only run on real time data
if(!Historical)
GetAccountValue(AccountItem.CashValue)

Ohh shoot your right, I am broke.. Ha ha J/K, that would suck; the account value is showing. I will add the syntax you provided and give it a try. Thank you.
