order_target_percent() problem

[G_will]

When I want to get full long position:

self.order_target_percent(target=1.0)

It works good.

But When I want to get full short position:

self.order_target_percent(target=-1.0)

It does not work. So I have to use self.order_target_percent(target=-0.9), but it has some deviations.

Is it a bug?

I guess you are having a similar margin problem as my previous post. Hope it helps.

It is not a bug with quite high confidence.
