Dear SC,
I appreciate all the changes you make to my favourite trading platform, but the new look of the Trade Statistics tab is definitely not one of them. Let me explain.

1. From usability point of view, only those lines in thise tab should be in bold that are crucial to reading the table. I mean the main parametres, the 1st paragraph (lines Total Profit/Loss... Profit Factor). All other lines needn't be in bold, because otherwise the table becomes unreadable, and it makes me want to downgrade to the previous version. I keep testing tens of Automated Trading systems during the day, and I can't properly use the Trade Statistics tab now.

2. The highlighted negative values should be IN RED.

Please see this.

Thanks a lot!

1. From what we can tell, one of the operating system fonts is being used. We are not specifying bold. Check the Windows Display settings in the Control Panel

2. We will see about this.

1. Sorry, but you are wrong. The Bold setting wasn't there before version 1039. I tested it on a different machine (which had version 1032), and it didn't have this bug, but as soon as I upgraded, the bold font appeared on that machine as well.

Systems checked - windows 7 and windows 8.1. Please review this again.

(The other issue with version 1039 is that my ACSIL system is making UNMATCHED FILLS only. The trades are open but never closed.)

1. You misunderstood. The Trade Statistics tab has been completely redeveloped. So it is going to look different compared to a previous version. And we do not use a bold font . We do not know why it appears that way for you. Additionally we do not know why you had that very abnormal problem of it drawing very slowly. That must've been a system problem.

In the next release, the font will be controllable through the Text Windows Font in Global Settings >> Graphics Settings.

The appearance of a font, is not considered an "bug". This is an appearance issue. Why you see it the way you do, we do not know.
