Here we work very hard, to ensure absolute perfection and proper design, and then we are being accused of "crap". And as we said, daily profit/loss calculations are inherently very problematic because we are trying to calculate that off of order fills which Sierra Chart receives and can be incomplete and potentially inaccurate. There is inherently a lot of problems with this. It does require user intervention and understanding. We are going to take more time and put together a single unified document and explain this step-by-step. Wait for that. We are only trying to do our very best. And yes in some cases the changes could require you to make some adjustment to the Date-Time of loading order fills into the chart (Chart Settings: Order Fills Start Date-Time (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu)) that perhaps you did not need to do before but it also solves problems and creates a clear understanding about how the calculation is arrived at.
