open positions

[another trader]

if i have a list of symbols i'm trading - ie eur.usd, usd.cad, gbp.usd, etc is it possible to set-up an if statement checking for open positions? ie if i only want to have 3 positions open at one time.

private int OpenPositions = 3; // Default setting for open positions

protected override void OnBarUpdate ()
{
if (
Total open positions in the account <= OpenPositions
&& Condition1
)
{
EnterLongLimit(0, GetCurrentAsk(), "LongEnty";
}}

Hi another trader,

When it comes to positions in NinjaScript, this will depend on how many different symbols you have added to the script.

The script will have 1 position per symbol. This position will have a quantity.

To find the position quantity use:
Position.Quantity

To find the number of Positions (number of symbols added to the script using the Add() call):
Positions.Count
