1. the average price I see in ACSIL is dependent on the user settings in Chart Trade Settings->Position->Use Flat to Flat Average Price for Position Line? 2. the average price I see in ACSIL should be the same as the position line on the chart |

1. No it is not. It is a fill to fill calculation. 2. In the case of ACSIL we would use a separate variable for this. Is this for simulated or non-simulated trading?

forgot the question mark in my original post. it was a question, not a statement. for now just trying to get clarification how its supposed to work from ACSIL. from your answer, I understand that ACSIL would always return fill-fill average price?this thread is related to simulated and non-simulated. btw, the ACSIL docs here http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_ACSILTrading.html#s_SCPositionData reference this page - http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/doc_TradeStatusWindows.html#HowAvgPricePositionsCalcUsed so it seems as if the acsil average price behaves according to the UI settings |

Yes, a fill to fill order grouping method is used. The documentation has been updated. This is true whether the trading is simulated or non-simulated. However, there can be exceptions for non-simulated trading. For example, in the case of Interactive Brokers there is an option to always use the average price from the Interactive Brokers Position Data.
