RE: [amibroker] Question on SigScaleIn on Portfolio Testing

I don't know the answer for sure, but I'm guessing it does NOT count
against your total positions since it's only a single position in the
backtester. However, you are likely to never have enough money to
scale-in since you are spending 10 * 10% on the primary positions.

Subject: [amibroker] Question on SigScaleIn on Portfolio Testing

I am doing portfolio testing where I have a max open positions of 10 
and use 10% of my equity for each position.  I also scale in (pyramid) 
positions using the sigScaleIn function.  My question is - Does 
Amibroker count my scale-in position against my # of positions and 
capital constraint?
