In an attached trade window, the DPL (C) shows a wildly inaccurate tally. For example... a loss of $100.00, immediately reflects as -$2437.50; however, in checking the back end w/ the broker, the numbers seem to be correct. This problem started yesterday, & at that time, there were some suspicious changes as I toggled back & forth to see what was going on- but let's keep it simple for now, & assume all was correct where it counts.

[This is in the ES September contract, btw]

Anticipating you'll want a log, I just sent it.

Also, yesterday, troubleshooting the problem first, I cleared all the trades in the trade activity log, & also updated Sierra Chart from v. 2422 to v. 2424.

Please advise... thank you.
