Probably because OpenPos is returning Null when there's no open
position for that stock. Any time you call a function to get an
object, you need to test that the object returned is not Null.
Technically this should be done with a statement like:
if (!IsNull(OpenPos))
but the following also works due to the nature of Null:
if (OpenPos)
