With settings desribed below all trade value fields in the Trade Activity Log under Trade Statistics, Trades and Period Trade Stats incorrectly show tick values when they should be showing currency values. This results in very high values being stated in profit loss, draw down, p/l totals etc Settings to reproduce: Choose any option in the symbols filter (third drop down list) with the [SIM] prefix Set P/L Format to any of the Currency Value options When setting the symbols filter to a symbol which is not prefixed with [SIM] the correct values are displayed. Screen shots attached showing these behaviours. Can you please look into this and confirm. |

Apparently what is happening is that on the Trade Statistics tab, there is not a conversion to the common currency in the case of a simulated symbol. We are looking into this.

FYI - I have similar issue; Replay back tests I have set the P/L format to ticks (T) but get only currency output, no matter what I do; this is in SIM mode (DTS instance 2nd computer), all my analysis is in ticks; this may be random but I cannot figure why it changes to currency ($US); the main live computer is in ticks and displays ticks; but sometimes goes to currency with ticks selected for whatever reason. If I am missing something please direct me to the solution.

Thanks for the reply; I have the correct tick/currency values set in both 'chart settings' & Global symbol settings as 6.25 (6E futures) & the Activity Log set to look at SIM back tests and still cannot get ticks (T) no matter what; see attached pictures;
