That is correct. JBT supports position sizing in a natural way, so
it's easy to code strategies that use scaling in and out. However, C2
reports positions somewhat misleadingly. For example, I short 20, then
buy to close 10, then short 10 more, and finally buy back 20. Notice
that at no point in time my position was more than 20 contracts, but
C2 will report it as "30 sell to open, 30 buy to close". So, those 61
contracts did not represent an open position of 61 contracts, but
rather a total quantity bought and sold.

>is CME data available for the latest JBT format?

The CME data comes on DVDs and contains raw data. I then convert it to
JBT format using CMEDataConverter.java (included with JBT), and that's
the data set that I publish on the project page.

> Also, are you going to put c2 fix on your next release.

Yes, the source code that I publish is exactly the same source code
that I use, except for the strategies themselves which are not
included.
