For some instruments like BTC, ETH (crypto) the PnL is not calculated correctly and is not shown on the order lines on the chart. Where can I specify how to calculate my PnL based on a certain number of contracts I am trading, leverage and per tick move, so that SC shows/calculates correctly? Thansk Vish |

Sierra assumes a constant tick value when calculating PNL, so assets like XBTUSD which on BitMEX is priced in dollars, but funded in BTC, the tick value is dynamic, so the default calculation methods no longer work. See more on this thread: Bitmex XBTUSD wrong PNL |

thanks I think being able to export trade activity log in an excel could be a workaround solution but looks like that option is 'greyed out' .. it can only be saved as .txt?

Trade activity data can only be saved in a tab delimited text format but that format can be easily read by any spreadsheet program.
