Hello I set Global PL to flatten with loss trigger value at -500$. Opened position as the first trade during a day - chart with Dax "as the main" and mini-Dax as "Use as trade only symbol" checked. Got flattened due to set Global PL but on the value of -$140. Where should I look for to know why it happened. Maybe it calculates Global PL only for Dax even if mini-Dax is set as Use as trade only symbol. Please give me some guidance where should look for deeper. Thank you.

The -650, is based upon the the Daily Net Profit/Loss for all of the symbols being tracked as explained in the documentation. From our position, we have no ability to know what the data that was used in that calculation. You have to look at it through the Trade Statistics for Charts tab at the time: Trade Activity Log: Trade Statistics for Charts (Chart Stats) Tab Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
