Plotting cumulative net profit

[dibDab]

are there any examples of plotting cumulative net profit?

Hello, thanks for writing in. There is no existing example, you can always right click>Strategy Performance> change the view to "Analysis" at the top left and this will let you chart out the cumulative profit in different ways. We have an example here on how to implement plots in a separate panel from a NinjaScript Strategy:

Is the strategy performance data (specifically cumulative net profit) available to ninjascript? trying to plot cumulative net profit on the chart.

or perhaps an event that triggers every time a profit (or loss) is generated?

Hello, thanks for the follow up. You can get the unrealized PnL through the Position object:

ok thanks.

I'm plotting Position.GetUnrealizedProfitLoss(PerformanceUnit.C urrency, Close[0]); on a strategy indicator.

In Tools > Options > Trading does "Use Total PnL for Show Realized PnL when flat. " influence this?
