Realtime update

[gg80108]

I'd like my PnL to update on every tick, I can see the bid and ask updating but the PNL only updates on bar close.. I do have CalculateOnBarClose = true;

protected override void OnMarketData(MarketDataEventArgs e)
{
if(Time[0].DayOfWeek != DayOfWeek.Wednesday)
{
local = DateTime.Now;
double a=e.MarketData.Ask.Volume;
double b=e.MarketData.Bid.Volume;
DrawTextFixed("tradetimes","Bid "+a.ToString()+ " Ask "+b.ToString()+ "\n"+local.ToString(),TextPosition.BottomRight,Col or.Black,new Font("Arial",10),Color.Black,Color.Yellow,5);
DrawTextFixed("PNLd"," Open PnL:$ "+Position.GetProfitLoss(GetCurrentAsk(), PerformanceUnit.Currency).ToString("0.00")+ " Closed PNL:$"+ profit.ToString("0.00")+ " #Trades: "+ (tradectr/2).ToString()+" " ,TextPosition.BottomLeft,Color.White,textFont,Colo r.Black,Color.Black,12);

}

Hello gg80108,

Thank you for your note.

I have had a chance to test the code that you have supplied. I was able to verify does indeed run on every tick. This includes the PnL on the second draw text.

I added a position change to the beginning of onMarketUpdate and the PnL did reflect this position before the end of the first bar. (I'm using a 10 minute chart).

The PnL will only update once you are in a position and there has been movement of greater than 1 tick.

To know if the PnL should be changing I would need to review your completed script as there are no position changes in your supplied code.


Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
