You can set the PositionSize variable in your code. For example, if
you want all positions to be 100 shares using the Open price, you
would write:
PositionSize = Open * 100;
...where PositionSize is set to the dollar value for the position
(see table): http://www.amibroker.com/guide/a_language.html
Alternatively, you could set the PosSize field of each individual
Signal object from within custom backtester code.
