    Does the reserved word 'currentShares' work in TradeStation 2000i? I get the feeling it doesn't and can't seem to locate its equivilant...

    anyone have some experience or advice here?

    Thanks!

    It is not in the dictionary with the PowerEditor. What would it be telling you if it were?

    FROM THE MANUAL:
    Examples
    The following statement buys 100contracts/shares at the closing price of the bar: Buy 100 Shares This Bar on Close; The following statement buys the default number of contracts/shares specified in the Costs tab at the open of the next bar ,and names this entry order Entry#1: Buy(“Entry#1”)

    keywords "shares" and "contracts" appear synonymous.
