Im currently designing a system which can go both long and short

For the thread sake lets say the code is

PositionSize = (Risk/(BuyPrice - InitialStop))*BuyPrice

This works fine on LONG positions

But when going short i need

PositionSize = (Risk/(ShortPrice + initialStop))*ShortPrice

These two do not work independantly of each other, so sometimes i get weird 
buys like 4-5 shares and sometimes it is a normal amount

Is there a way to seperate these two?

Like PositionSizeLong = And PositionSizeShort =

Or soemthing along those lines

Cheers
Brad
