Another way to approach this is to use the "Spreadsheet System for Trading". Columns I and J give you information regarding various items, including "Open Profit/Loss" and "Cumulative Closed Profit/Loss". Look for the specific profit item you want to use and then you can reference that cell in one of the Calculation Columns (such as O) and then you can get access to that information through the subgraph for that column.

For instance, if you want to use the "Open Profit/Loss", then this is located in cell J10. So in cell O3, you would enter the following:
=$J$10

So the O column now has that information in it. Now you can reference that by using ID1.SG5 where ID1 is the ID of the Spreadsheet System for Trading and SG5 is the O column data.

Note that cell J10 may be something different depending on how you have the Input for "Use Column I and J Values Version 2" of the Spreadsheet System For Trading.
