Default Position size?

Is there a way to use the strat wizard to go long or short based on the dollar amount you want per position instead of quantity of shares? Another words I want to buy $100 worth of shares instead of 100 shares. Thank you

relogical,

Yes, this is possible but would require making a formula for how you want the order quantity to be set.
