Position Sizing
Position sizing scripts are automatically called to determine the number of shares
/ contracts / units to buy or sell when an order is generated by a
trading strategy script.
Position sizing scripts can evaluate pending orders and determine their size based
on numerous variables such as current account statistics, open and closed trades
and historical symbol behavior.
Separating the logic of when to enter or exit a trade via
trading strategy scripts, and how much to invest in it via position sizing
scripts, simplifies testing different combinations of the two.

easily be developed using the resource designer and IQLanguage.
