Is there a way to get the correct multiplier for option trades in the trade activity log? The log is showing the correct entry and exit price, but it's missing the multiplier hence the profit/loss and Cum P/L are incorrect. On a related topic, is it possible to auto-generate weekly/monthly/quarterly/yearly trade statistics? |

What you are asking about is called the Currency Value Per Tick setting. This is done through Global Symbol Settings. The symbol and its settings need to be added.

Are you saying I need to add each option symbol with the proper tick size each time I do an options trade? Yes, am able to set the date range for the trade statistics tab. My question was, can I schedule it so it'll auto generate reports on a wkly/monthly basis and save it to a file? |

You can add a symbol pattern that matches with many options symbols. Refer to the information about patterns here: Global Symbol Settings: Symbol Pattern Characters There is no automatic generation of reports.

You are also running an older version of Sierra Chart. You really should update to the current version.
