Is there any way bid/ask based net P/L could be added as a feature (or is it already supported)? By this I mean, if you're long, the NPL is based on the bid price, and if you're short, the NPL is based on the ask price. This is quite helpful when it comes to low-volume stocks where the bids and asks might be quite a bit different than the last trade. It also means that you NPL is what you would get if you liquidated at market. Which is more important to me than the last price. -Brandon Date Time Of Last Edit: 2013-05-07 20:37:55

Yes we can add this. But we do not want to. You need to understand our perspective on this. It is more programming. It is more options. Only increasing the complexity of PL calculations. It is more support. If the bid and ask prices are wrong and sometimes they are, then there are questions as to why the PL is wrong.
