As an investment strategy I determine the number of shares to purchase based on a fixed percentage of my portfolio divided by the current market price.
Example: (percentage x total portfolio) / price = #shares to purchase
Is there a feature to specify a dollar amount in the order quantity field that will automatically determine the # shares based on the current price?
If not, then perhaps there might be some creative way to at least display the calculated "# of shares" value associated with a symbol, somewhere else for reference purposes? I'm not familiar with NinjaScript but if it can allow simple calculations I would think a custom indicator can be built and added as a new column in the Market Analyzer window to handle this?
Thanks!
