Time Zones are all consistent (CST).

A couple things came to mind i thought may be potential factors;
how DailyPL is calculated on orders held overnight and re-starting Sierra while a position is being held.

I've been able to re-create the problem.
It has to do with being in a position and then re-starting Sierra.

For an experiment, I entered short (-10) contracts, Closed and restarted Sierra.
When the charts opened and calculated POS in the trade windows, the Dom added an additional 5 contracts to my POS. (-15)
Thus affecting the DailyPL in the Dom as well. (see attachment)

at this point, I flattened from the Dom. The Dom then read (0) POS however the trade window on the 1min chart now said (+5).
I then flattened from the 1min chart's trade window and it then read (0) however the Dom now said (-5).

Flattened once more on the Dom and this time all read (0) finally. The DailyPL (on the Dom) however still +10pts off from the other trade windows.


The charts appear to be consistent. It seems to be an issue with the Dom.
I am using a number of Study/Price overlays on the Dom, if that has any bearing.
