Hello,

Position.EntryPrice returns the entry price. Is there a function that returns the limit of the entrysignal, i.e. 0 if it was market or the limit if it was a limit entry.

See EntryOrderType and ExitOrderType properties.

I am not looking for the type, I am looking for the price!

Buy 100 @ 10.05. How to get the 10.05?

I've never heard before of such function, but I guess you could code it, identifying the planned entry price with the Position.Tag property.

You could get that from Position.BasisPrice for limit and stop orders, but market orders will also have a basis price.
