Managing buys/sells/holds

Hello -

I have a script where I rank symbols.

comborank = comp(ROCP(50),"rank");

test = Comp(ROCP(50),"count");
pos = iff(test >= 15,15,test);

SetSimPosSize(100/pos,_PercentOfEquity);
SetSimTiming(_Buy,_Close,0);
SetSimTiming(_Sell,_Close,0);

buy = (comborank <= POS) and (RebalIndexDate ==0);
sell = (RebalIndexDate ==0);

I would like the system to be 100 percent invested - no more - Also I would like it to hold positions which have buy signals.

When I use -

sell = (RebalIndexDate ==0) and (comborank > POS);//

The system doesn't hold 15 Positions......

Any Sugestions?

In your trading system, make sure the "Number of positions" is set to 15 or more depending on the number of max symbols you want to have.

Yeah, I did that - Wasn't the issue. though. When use Sell = 1; it gets the job done, but it doesn't allow me to calculate turnover.

Thanks-

Try with
sell = comborank > POS;
