      sorry, i should have made that a bit clearer.

      in the backtest results, after a backtest/optimize, the results appear but without any actual monetary values

      i see the number of win/lose trades etc but profit/loss values are $0.0

        Please provide a screenshot. Thank you. Also, try setting the Strategy Analyzer to be in Currency mode (middle of topbar)

            diffused,

            It looks like you are trading with quantity of one. A quantity of one when trading forex would likely yield sub penny profits. This is likely why you are seeing $0.00.

            Are you on GAIN? Please check your settings based on the connection guide here: http://www.ninjatrader.com/webnew/support_GAIN.htm
