Provide $$ amount and purchase that many shares

[EddieM]

How can I add a setting to set a set amount to spend so not using the full account balance but use an amount set in the settings. like $1000 so it is shows how many stocks can be got for a $1000 or what ever price amount I put in as my limit amount to spend.?
Here is my screen grab with the code I added into to another it shows in white up top.
I would like it to show something like amount to use $1000 or what ever I set it to in the setting and then the you can buy shares amount based on that.?

I got the code from here

Just changed it to white.

def SBP = GetTotalCash () ;
AddLabel(yes,
" Total Cash = " + SBP +
" You can buy: " + roundDown(SBP/close,0) +" shares", Color.white);

thanks

Ok I found a way by adding in this to replace the one I posted.
it adds in a Balance input to set to any amount you want.

input balance = 1000;
def current_price = close;
def limit = balance / current_price;

AddLabel(yes, Concat("Spending Limit = ", RoundDown(balance)), color.green);
AddLabel(yes, Concat("You can buy: " , RoundDown(limit)) +" Shares", color.white);
