No, This isn't a function, although that is not a bad idea. You could then
change the default value of the variable in the function that could then be
used and changed across all systems. This also touches on the subject of
changing variables across systems that someone was asking about.

: Thanks Jim - do you mean to create a function that is called by the
signal?
: This seems to make sense to me and I will try it later

: Thanks again for the help I appreciate it

: | Mel,
: |
: | I created the following code to automatically calculate a position size
: that
: | i wanted. I used the variable pstnsize. It is defined as a variable with
: an
: | initial amount. If you go in to Easylanguage and change the value of the
: | variable, it will update your strategy and make the changes in all of
your
: | systems that use it(When you verify it). I think that does what you
want.
: In
: | my case I want a round number of shares and have created an algorithm to
: do
: | it. I use a slightly different formula if the share price is above 50.
: | Create your own algorithm, but the process is the same.
: |
: | If C > 0 AND C < 50 then begin
: | nmbrsharesraw = pstnsize/C;
: | nmbrshares = Intportion(nmbrsharesraw * .01) * 100;
: | end Else begin
: | If C > 50 Then
: | nmbrsharesraw = pstnsize/C;
: | If FracPortion(nmbrsharesraw * .01) > .50 then
: | nmbrshares = (Intportion(nmbrsharesraw * .01) + 1) * 100;
: | End;
: |
: | In my trade statement I just say:
: |
: | Buy (system) nmbrshares Shares this Bar on Close;

: | Subject: Changing inputs across symbols in same workspace
: |
: |
: | : I am setting up multiple symbols in one workspace and all have the
same
: | : strategy and the same inputs.
: | :
: | : One of the inputs is the account size to determine number of contracts
: to
: | : trade.
: | :
: | : Is it possible to globally change this as the account size varies ( it
: is
: | : not varied inside the code by the addition of netprofit ) as I want to
: | take
: | : the real amount and have the code use this value. I do not mind doing
it
: | : once manually but it would be a
: | : real pain across say 30 - 40 symbols.
: | :
: | : I have tried resetting the strategy inputs in the system builder, with
: the
: | : status turned off and also amending the account size in the code and
: then
: | : verifying - but neither worked.

: | : Thanks
