Hello,

From what I am seeing, the PriorPositionQuantity variable is only filled in when using the sc.GetTradePosition() function. It is not filled in when using sc.GetTradePositionByIndex() or sc.GetTradePositionForSymbolAndAccount().

I am working on a study that aims to obtain the prior position quantity for each position in the account, and this does seem like the most logical way to obtain it.

For now I can create a workaround using a persistent variable but I thought I could point it out in case it was an easy fix to add.

We had a look at this and there is not an easy solution to this at this time.
