Scale-into-long-and-short-with-a-different-size

Thanks for the response Glitch. Do you mean simply scale the positions in the Buy/Short entry orders?

When you say scale what do you mean exactly, can you give an example?

Let's say if I want to go long multiply share count by 1.1 and if short by 0.9 for example.

My approach would probably be to assign the Quantity to the Transaction instances that you get when you call PlaceTrade. That way you have full control over the position size.

Please make corrections to the code below if it's wrong. I haven't tried it.

CODE:
         Transaction t = PlaceTrade(bars, TransactionType.Buy, OrderType.Market, 0, "long buy");
         t.Quantity = t.Quantity * ((t.PositionType == PositionType.Long)? 1.1 : 0.9);
         // t.Quantity *= t.PositionType == PositionType.Long ? 1.1 : 0.9; //alternatively
