Due to how everything is structured internally in the case of simulated trading, it probably is not possible to determine the Open Profit/Loss, when you specify a symbol for a position different than the symbol of the chart the trading study is on which is making the call.

In which case we just have to set it to 0.

You can calculate this yourself by obtaining the current pricing data:
ACSIL Interface Members - Functions: sc.GetSymbolDataValue()
