If we are being asked questions about it, and the user does not understand how the calculations are done although they are documented, then our recommendation is not to use it because this is an indication there is a misunderstanding as to how the calculations are done. And we do not want you to use the functionality if you do not understand it.


And it should never be enabled when Sierra Chart is started because it can take time for the profit/loss values to be updated to the current day as historical data is being downloaded within charts. This is why it is meant to be disabled when Sierra Chart is started.

However, users do not use the option, which disables the functionality on startup. If you run into problems, this is because our advice has been disregarded.
