Portfolio Trader Initial Capital
Posted: Nov 16 2022
Hello.
I've 2 portfolio strategies that must work with 2 different brokers: strategyA with brokerA and strategyB with brokerB.
If I have the same amount of money on both brokers (let's say for example 50.000$ on brokerA and 50.000$ on brokerB) I will set "Initial Portfolio Capital" (on the PortfolioTrader) equal to 100.000.
But what happens if I have a different amount of capital on the two brokers (for example 50.000 and 70.000)?
Should I set the Initial Capital equal to 120.000 and expect to see some trades rejected by the brokerA (the one with less capital)?
Or should I set the Initial Capital equal to 100.000 and expect not to be completely invested on the brokerB (the one with more capital)?
Is there any other way or solution?
I use the last MC14 version.
Thank you in advance
