Incorrect P&L Calculations with NT7 B3
Am trading CL with NT7 B3. Started noticing that sometimes the "Realized PnL" column under the "Accounts" tab was displaying a number slightly off of what I thought it should be after a day's worth of trades. All of the executed trades indicated on the chart (chart trader) were correct. All trades listed under the "Executions" tab are correct. And when I generate a report for the day's trades under the "Account Performance Tab", everything listed in the "Executions" sub-tab are correct as well. However, when I look at the summary results, the "Total Net Profit" of all trades is the same incorrect amount as in the "Realized PnL" column of the main "Accounts" tab. Upon further research, I found that while all the trades listed under the "Executions" tab are correct (both main tab and sub-tab of "Account Performance"), the corresponding "Trades" sub tab of "Account Performance" was found to be listing inaccurate executions. For example, a long trade that was entered at 80.19 and exited at 80.30 is being shown to have a calculated profit of +.14, which is obviously incorrect as it should be +.11. Another example is showing 2 executed trades/positions, where only 1 was actually taken, thereby giving additional profit or loss.

OK. Slight modification to question/issue. It appears the value in the "Profit" column is correct as far as calculating entry vs. exit price. I was simply misreading "%" instead of actual # of ticks. However, the overall total net profit is still incorrect due to the fact that the values being used for entry price and time are incorrect in the cases where I am adding to an existing position (in this case short). In this particular case, the PnL for the 2nd short position I added is being calculated w/ the exact same entry price as the 1st original position, thus showing a profit on the 2nd position instead of what was actually a break even trade. See attached screen shots.
