Hi Guys,
Is there an easy way to get the available cash in my account for trading cryptos when I dont want to use leverage/margin?
If I use Portfolio.Cash I get the total portfolio value because all currency holdings are translated into USD and summed up.
Portfolio.GetBuyingPower I would use for leverage/margin what I dont want to do.
I could work around and calcualte values of the current holdings and substract it from the total portfolio value, but wonder if there is a helper method/property I am missing?
Cheers,
Thomas
