I’m getting an error, ‘insufficient qty available for order (requested: 5, available: 1)’ while trying to place an order for an opposite position (in order to close X quantity of trades)
In the example from my logs below, I have 9 short positions in TRS. My algo wants to adjust it to 4 so it tries to place a limit buy order for 5 shares.
