Good evening. I was doing a small amount of trading and was up about 6.75 points, which was displayed in the DPL. I then changed the study on my chart and moved from renko bars to candles and suddenly my DPL showed -26.50 or something like that. I restarted a couple of times, but it didnt change. I did another trade thinking maybe that might fix things. Trade was a small winner, but the DPL was still negative and is currently at -25.75. I would be +8 points or so. I looked at the trading activity log and it looked correct.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

One thing to check is the Order Fills Start Date-Time which is explained on that page. We recommend setting that rather than leaving it blank This will ensure consistency with the calculations. You will also want to enable Filter Initial Fills Which Are Part of Existing Position.
