Requesting Assistance with Including Commissions per Contract on DPL

Hello SierraChart,

Hope you are doing well! The reason for the message is to request assistance in including the commissions per contract so that the DPL can show the true PnL number. I have tried adding the round turn commission & enabled the 'Use Symbol Commission Setting in Trade List and Statistics Calculations' with no luck. The DPL number within the chart window on the top left is not matching up to the true PnL as shown in the DailyNetP/L column within the Trade Account Monitor window.

May you assist with this matter?

I am trading MNQ, the amount of commissions per 1 MNQ contract is $1.02 round trip ($0.51 per entry/exit executions per 1 MNQ contract) for these accounts I'm trading with. I need for the DailyNetP/L column number within the Trade Account Monitor window to show in the DPL within the chart window.

In the "Symbol Settings" window is the option for "Use Custom Symbol Settings Values" enabled (has a checkmark)? If not, then this would be why the round-turn commission is not being applied. Refer to the following:
Global Symbol Settings: Use Custom Symbol Settings Values (Global Settings >> Symbol Settings)

Yes, this is checked. It's still not working.
