Well, OK, I see that.  But what if I try to scale in using sigscalein?  I guess 
I need to know how to determine the current number of owned shares in the 
symbol in order to determine how many more I can buy.  Is there a variable that 
specifies the current number of owned shares?

  if shares is what you normally work out to be what you buy
  shares = .....
  setpositionsize(min(shares, 500), spsShares);

    Dumb question I'm sure, but what's the best way to limit the maximum number 
    of shares per symbol in the backtester?

    (for instance, only allow a maximum of 500 shares even if there's cash for 
    more)

    Thanks
