Hello Brett, thank you very much for your answer.

Yes, i found that but the output of GetAccountValue(AccountItem.CashValue) or GetAccountValue(AccountItem.BuyingPower) always was 0 (zero).

( When i tested today Saturday i was connecting in demo (Sim101) with a lease licensed )

Itr possible select the account in the code?


Thanks

Hello,

The account that is selected is the account that you run the strategy on. This is set in the strategy parameters.

If it has a value of 0 this most likely indicates that you ran this code on the Sim101 account in historical or backtest. As this value is only available in realtime.
