- default net
What it does
Reports whether the strategy currently holds any position (size ≠ 0).
What happens
Read from the engine's live execution context each candle — it reflects the current run (position, equity, time, trade history), not a computed indicator.
When to use
Gate entries ('only enter when flat') or guard exits.
Gotchas
- Hedge mode: set side to test one book; net (default) is true if either side is open.
