This behavior is occurring on all of the futures markets I've tested: Gold, Crude Oil, Micro E-Mini S&P, and E-Mini S&P. What I've observed so far: 1. Sometimes the unrealized P/L value will fluctuate from being inaccurate by +/- $0.01 to being accurate without any action taken by me. Then moments later, change back to being inaccurate by +/-0.01 2. When testing on E-Mini S&P futures, if I buy/sell 1 contract, the unrealized P/L value is accurate. However, when buying/selling 2 to 4 contracts, this always causes the unrealized P/L value to be incorrect by +/- $0.01. When buying/selling 5 to 8 contracts, this always causes the unrealized P/L value to be incorrect by +/- $0.02. When buying/selling 9 to 11 contracts, this always causes the unrealized P/L value to be incorrect by +/- $0.03. When buying/selling 12 to 14 contracts, this always causes the unrealized P/L value to be incorrect by +/- $0.04. |
