Stewart,
Without knowing anything about your strategy, it's hard to say
exactly how'd you use it.
If you're buying the next day based some condition happening today,
then you'd run a scan the night before to identify your candidates
along with possible entry prices (e.g. open, close, over a certain
price, under a certain price, etc.), exit prices (e.g. last peak,
yesterday's high, percent profit target, etc.), and maybe also stop
price (e.g. yesterday's low, last trough, etc.).
If you're buying the same day based on some condition happening
today, you might be running a scan towards the end of the day to find
your candidates.
Not sure what you mean by "tracking signals".
As for position size, that really depends on how you do position
sizing. Are you using a fixed percentage of equity, fixed position
size, etc. ? Most of the time, it's up to you to calculate and keep
track of position size for your orders by way of e.g. a spreadsheet.
Same for stops.
Hope that helped a bit.
