All of the position size and score logic is implemented in amibroker properly. However, the entries and sizing doesn't occur until the market has opened and the open price has been registered, which is too late for me.
In other words, the trades don't show up in the backtester until they are already opened. I am using "Scan" to generate the signals, but the scan doesn't show you which trades win on score and what the sizing should be.
I'm doing the sizing manually, but the position scoring when there are a lot of signals is painful to do manually.

And if you still have more specific questions, the good folks of this user list should be able to help you out.

The logic for these is fairly complex, and since I've encoded it into the system I would like to be able to use the system output for full trade entry info.
