Hey guys, I have been trying to find this on support board but I am not having luck. Two things 1) I know in the chart settings under Trade - you can select FIFO vs LIFO and some other options -- Does Teton support LIFO, is the avg price correct when it comes to LIFO? 2) Is it possible to who each individual position, for example. I have 5 lots on and I want to see each one to show what the PnL is instead of showing avg price I currently have FIFO set-up with broker but am wanting to switch to LIFO so I can trade the initial position + trade around it. Thanks for your help. |

1. The Position Average Price that you see in the Trade Positions Window is based upon FIFO when using Teton and cannot be changed. But you can change this within the Trade Window: Trading Information Windows: How Average Price for Positions Is Calculated and Used 2.

Can I set up LIFO as a Global Setting or do I need to change the setting on each chart?

It is controllable per chart. Although in the Trade Activity Log there is one setting for this: Trade Activity Log However, that is just for that particular location and not charts.
