You can't access current equity at portfolio backtests directly without using the CBI. But you can define the positionsize as percentage of current equity:
PositionSize = -25; // invest 25% of portfolio equity in single trade Check out the CBI documentation if you want to access the equity bar by bar.

I need to use the current total equity to calculate the position size for each individual trade. I can't seem to find a good way to reliably access the value of the portfolio-level equity. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance, ------------------------------------ **** IMPORTANT **** This group is for the discussion between users only.
