Are buys/sells executed in the weighted order do all sell get executed followed by buys in weighted order until NSF? Can this be controlled in backtesting?

When processing market orders, sells are executed first followed by buys.

Of course. For Market order strategies, see the Transaction class example for Weight.

You can assign your own Weight for a Limit/Stop strategy too, but real life rules would require that weight to be Time-Of-Day related. WL7 does this automatically for you using the Strategy Advanced Settings > Use Granular Limit/Stop Processing (see Help, intraday data required).
