Hi Support

Would like to request a tool to see current exposure / risk to my portfolio as a whole and also at individual position.

- i.e. Current Price to nearest stop loss times shares in $ and also as a % of total equity

- ability to reduce positions when the risk of each stocks increases. i.e. I one stock performance is going to have a dramatic impact on portfolio then a way to reduce exposure at a level that is equal to all other positions in the port

Thank you for your considerations

This fits in to the years-long request for access to account equity information from within OLang (and OScript) using reserved words.

The exposure (equity and/or risk) for a given stock also calls for new access to the number of shares that are being traded by that position.

And of course we need the ability to dictate and adjust the shares to be traded/remain in trade, from within the Stop routine as well.

Most of this has been requested repeatedly since 2008
