hey all i got the answer

I just need to do

    case when Position < 0 then
    -1 *  Position * Mark * case when SecurityType in ('Equity','Equity Option') Then Mark * 100 else 1 end**
      else
            0
      end  Myvar , -- myvar will be (-) because in above condition i multiply -1
      Id
FROM    mytable
