The example below shows two /NQ contracts that experienced a combined -25pt loss. The same trade appears as a -100 point loss and inflates the statistics. The trade log records the appropriate open price (11351.50 and close price of 11339), resulting in a loss of -25 points. However, the 'Profit' column shows 100 points, MAE is 100 points.What in the world? Has anyone else experienced this?
I'm using stock data, so there are no custom data errors. 5-minute calendar, standard order fill resolution. The strategy is using a 12.5pt stop loss which I'm setting in code (and which works great on the charts and in real life.
Thanks for your help!
