Post From: Second trade entry logic ERROR!

I took another look, and I see what you are saying: The DPL when the second entry stops out is $160/32 ticks, which is the first entry's winnings, not the second entry's 2 ticks winnings.

However, when the first entry hits its target, the DPL for both entries is the same as it would have been had the second entry been 2 ticks profit.
IOW:
- second entry makes +32 ticks
- first entry makes +26 more ticks
- total +58 ticks

If the second entry made +2 ticks, first entry would have made +56 ticks. Same total of +58 ticks.

Same profit, but since the chart was set to LIFO, the trade's connecting lines are confusing at best, inaccurate at worst. See attached.
