not placing any more orders until flat

[Zinger357]

In Strategy builder can I set a condition that restricts placing anymore orders until my account is flat?

Hello Zinger357,

Unfortunately, the Strategy Builder does not have access to the Account object.

You could ensure that the strategy position is flat in the Strategy Builder, but you would not be able to check the Account position is flat.

Unlock the script, and you can access the Account as well as the PositionAccount.

I'm sorry I didn't mean account I meant strategy. How can I make sure the strategy is flat before any more orders are placed? I've been taking classes watching tons of yours and others videos but I'm not quite ready to unlock the code. This is my 6th strategy that I'm working on and my most ambitious but I'm just not to the point where I'm ready to be trying coding without the builder. But if you have a link to how I can do that that would be great. Also, my 2nd son just moved to Denver for his 1st job out of college how do you like it? He's working at the Tech center.

Hello Zinger357,

For checking the strategy position is flat:
On the left, select Strategy -> Current market position, in the center select Equals, on the right, select Strategy -> Market position, and ensure Flat is selected from the drop-down.

Denver is lively place. I'm sure they will enjoy it.
