StartPercent

Strategy Elements

Description

Percent of initial AccountSize to give to this strategy

Input

Any formula specifying a percentage

Notes

Both S.StartEquity and the initial value of S.Equity for the strategy will be this percentage of the initial account size.

The default StartPercent is 100. This models each strategy having the entire account at its disposal.

Specifying StartPercent less than 100 is useful when modeling strategies running in separate accounts. In this case *AccountSize* would be the sum of your initial account values and StartPercent would specify the relative percent sizses of each sub-account.

When using StartPercent: 100 (or not using it since this is the default), multiple strategies should apply their desired allocation fractions via their Quantity formulas.
