In ProtfolioManager.java, there are two adjustable settings:
 
*

MAX_SHORT_STRATEGIES = 4

MAX_LONG_STRATEGIES = 4
*

With these settings, you can avoid order rejections because of margin 
requirements not met.

Yesterday I had the condition of 4 active long positions and the fifth long 
strategy kicked in with 'Position set to 1' but did send an order 
submission because of the above settings. This is how it should be.

The condition 'Position set to 1' for the fifth strategy is set on hold by 
JBookTrader until on of the 4 active positions is closed. When that 
happens, an oder for the fifth strategy is generated although at that time 
the condition to enter a position for that fifth strategy is most probably 
no longer valid. Exactly that happened to me yesterday, where the fifth 
strategy kicked in way too late when the third strategy closed its position 
and freed one slot.

It can be handled this way but I would suggest such 
conditions be simply ignored instead of set on hold.
