I want to add leverage when picking stocks directly, is there a way? I have attached the Pairs Trading lesson algorithm in which we use Symbol.Create to select KO and PEP. Is there a way to set leverage to the whole strategy when selecting stocks that way?

Hi Pietro,
To set the leverage for the securities from our Universe Selection, we can use self.UniverseSettings.Leverage = 1
Best,
