How do i access PointValue of a Futures symbol in a strategy script? I tried Symbol.PointValue and PointValue(), but neither is supported.

thanks

There is no function to get this.
You must create your own function/indicator and add something like:

result = cFunctions.SymbolInfo.PointValue;

I need to get PointValue of the symbol whose order is triiggered in a Money Mgmt script (snippet below). I get a compile error "cFunctions doesnt exist in this context".

How do i specify the symbol and get the PointValue in the MM script? Pl provide sample code.

_TradingOrder pos = orders[i];
string sym = pos.Symbol;
double pv = cFunctions.SymbolInfo.PointValue; //How to specify symbol here? SymbolInfo(sym).PointValue

thx

string sym = pos.Symbol;
double pv = Data.GetSymbolInfo(sym).PointValue;
