Say, we run the script and 3 stocks show up with 2 banking stocks. We run for 5 and remove the 2 but allocations get changed. The system doesn't no how many stocks we are going to remove so it allocates based on result. What you need is allocation for 3 stocks only.
Let's do with an example
Capital = 30000, 3 stocks , 10000 each.
2 of them in banking so we run 5 stocks and remove the 2
But allocation is now made for 30000, 5 stocks, 6000 each.
If we create a sectors file, then the system would automatically remove stocks if they are from the same sector no need to change manually daily. This is permanent solution.
Now for a quick fix.
We save the orders file intermediately, open and delete the stocks and then continue with it. To do this
Before
pricing logic goes here caption, add this line
Python:
orders.to_csv('temporary_order_file.csv')
After it, add this line
Python:
orders = pd.read_csv('temporary_order_file.csv')
num_stock = len(orders)
Create a copy of the notebook before doing this
