[EquisMetaStock Group] Backtesting with money management

["Joe Bob" <iforbes@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Trying to write a system test, where I would like to sell half at 
say 2.5% profit, then let the remainder run with trend if possible 
until stopped out.  Can this be done within a system test?  If so, 
what function do I use to get current equity or current position 
size at beginning of trade and what function to set to sell half of 
an initial position?  I have found Tradestation code that does this, 
but all I have is MetaStock 9.
