Hello,

Is there a way to access the total value of the portfolio being traded from the simulator ? If for instance I have a system with an equity = $10.000, I want access the value of equity at the start of each trade so that I can set a stop loss value using percent risk of equity.

I saw that there is a money management script that uses Fixed risk per trade but it doesn't seem to be executing the stop loss:

Thanks!

What you are trying to do can be done using the money management script only.
The script has its own stop logic, it doesn't use the stop loss of the simulator.
