Position entry & P&L not showing on chart

[MP959]

Hi, I have chart trader enabled, but its not showing the usual position entered level that also shows the P&L usually, plus my P&L is also not showing up on the Super Dom even though I have instrument link enabled on both chart and dom.

Another thing I've noticed is that my ATM strategy does not save and also does not match on chart and dom.

EG I have a 2 contract position with a 1:1 RR saved, but then after a trade it defaults back to 1 position and / or a different RR., plus they don't match between chart trader and DOM which they should,eg chart trader showing 1 position, dom 2 etc.

Thanks

And the DOM not showing P&L even though I've taken some trades.

Well ok while I'm at it: I've input a 12 tick (so 3 points right) take profit for the ES which should be $ 150. But even though I've put in 20 sthg orders where some hit the 12 tick target in my trade performance analysis it shows my largest winner at $ 125 where it should be $ 150 right. This is on SIM for a Topstep evaluation.

Thanks once more hope we can clear this up :-)

Well something is totally wrong.

I just had a winning trade of $ 100.

BUT it is showing up in Ninjas Trade Performance / Trades as a $ 25 LOSS when it was a WIN. Same on Rithmic Trader PROs performance chart, they are my data feed and also tracking trades.

How can this be that a winner shows up as a loss.

It WAS a $ 100 dollar winner. BUT shows up as a $ 25 Loss !?!?

[MP959]

And BOTH Rithmic and Ninjatrders performance chart / trades are showing that I had ONE SINGLE winner of $ 125

And all remaining 32 trades of this day up to now where losses...

Which is simply not a true depiction of this trading day at all, eg my very last trade number 33 was in reality a $ 100 WINNER, not the $ 25 loser it shows up as !!!

I have just disconnected from my Topstep evaluation account and put a trade on in Ninja Sim.

And, bingo, the trade entry position line showed up along with profit and loss.

AND in my Ninjatrader performance the trade showed up as the winner it was. UNLIKE my last trade in the Topstep account.
