Commissions not included in PnL calculation

[Rollins]

Hi,

I've got the Apply Commissions to PnL Calculations checked. The commissions are listed on the trades but not included in the profit/loss figures as mentioned in the documentation.

Gross Loss
Total losing trades including commission
Gross Profit
Total winning trades including commission

Maybe all is fine and dandy and I'm just missing a detail. In the example I should be -3 and not +1 with $4 in commissions.

The account performance information is apart from this minor glitch awesome, congratulations.

Cheers

I see the same behavior. This is only on the "Account Performance" tab in control center -- in strategy analyzer, for example, they are fine.

The commissions would appear to be worked into the Gross Loss already. You can see the difference by turning on/off the Apply Commissions to PnL Calculations option.

Hi Josh,

Yes that would be expected, but my experience tells me otherwise (see screenshots). I am only refering to the Account performance tab though.

Thanks for your post

The commissions would also appear built into the Gross Profit as well. On my end I ran a very basic simulator run through where it generated $6.00 in profit. The commission was $2. On my screen it is just showing Gross Profit as $4 and a commission of $2. It then goes Total Net Profit = $4. It seems correct to me.

I would suspect the same to be for your case. You can run through the calculations manually on your end too. I believe it will add up correctly.

I am trading discretionary in sim mode, it's not in my calculation. The automated part is backed up by Pete S for the strategy analyzer.

Rollins: What's your commission setting for the instrument in question? Thanks

[Rollins]

$0.5 on MBT, thanks for checking.

Trades were executed from the dynamic SuperDOM.
