Self.broker.get_cash() not getting updated after selling
-
Hello,
As a part of weekly rebalancing, I want to sell some securities in my portfolio and use the proceeds to buy others meeting my custom criteria.
I have written a function that gets executed when notify_time is invoked on weekly basis.
The problem is when I sell the security,pos = self.getposition(d).size if pos: self.o[d]=self.close(data=d) cash = self.broker.get_cash()
Here, cash does not get updated, so that I can use it to place a buy order in the incoming lines of code.

AFAIU, the cash position is updated upon order execution and not upon order creation.
self.close
will just issue the order - it doesn't mean it will be immediately executed. IMHO it is probably better to check for the broker cash innotify_order
method.
