strategies button keeps getting greyed out

[tradejockey]

b5 is requiring me to close chart and open a new one frequently just so that I can launch strategy from the chart. Not sure if anyone else has noticed this.. strategies button is greyed out frequently. Also, using slider on the replay to move back to start of replay caused a crash (or the big red x mark on chart). I have a chart that has over 2 years worth of data.. on the flipside, I see that the touchy calender issue has been resolved.

Here are some exceptions caught (perhaps with slider)

one more thing... please fix euros vs dollars when it comes to showing eurex trades. there is a big difference 1-1.5.

also, please ensure that strategy tab shows cumulative pnl (sum of two positions open in multi instruments). You can put an if clause saying if both positions are in same currency, then combine them together.

this should reflect in unrealized, realized columns as well. as of now, strategy shows only for primary instrument.. have to flip to accounts tab to see cumulative performance while flipping through positions tab and strategy tab.

tradejockey,

It would be great if you could open new threads for separate issues. Thanks.

As far as the strategies button greying out, can you please provide a reproducible scenario we can try on our end? Thanks.

For the Market Replay issue, please try with a blank chart, no indicators or strategies. Do you see the same result? Slowly add back indicators/strategies till you find when it breaks.

For your Euro vs Dollars. Where exactly are you viewing this and what is the exact instrument you are trading?

For strategies tab PnL, the main row only lists one instrument of a multi-instrument strategy. You need to press the + button to see the other instruments.
