Average Up/Down Positions

Positions can be averaged up or down, but cannot be 100% accurate as position sizes are not a factor. Position averaging is calculated based on a single unit.

There is no extra trigger or syntax to average positions. Using the same opening submission for an existing trade that is still open will average the position. For example, if you submit BTO USDCAD @ 1.395 and do not close it, when you submit another opening position the same as an existing one, such as BTO AAPL @ 1.394, it will already know you have an existing open trade for this ticker and will auto calculate the new average for this trade to 1.3945- the average of 1.394 & 1.395.

Using Slash Commands

The same concept applies to slash commands as with text commands. Submitting an open position for the same existing open position will average it.
