The new version is out. Unless we have made some mistake, we really do not see what more we can ddo with CTS Account Balance data. Any further changes really would have to be implemented by CTS.

So you want to have the Account Value? There is a tag for the account value, but apparently it is just zero. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

SC Support So you want to have the Account Value?
Personally I've got all I need. Thank you.but apparently it is just zero.
I've sent the request to CTS to inform them.to have the Account Value?
the Equity cash value is the most important info for a retail trader, I belive.so what do you think of just to calculate it: -- Balance Tab - Cash Balance = Tag 921 StartCash (leave as is) - Margin Requirement (leave as is) - Available funds for New Positions = Cash Balance - Margin Requirement + Daily P\L (live totals) - Account Value (Equity) = Cash Balance + Daily P\L (live totals) TY.

SC Support - Available funds for New Positions = Cash Balance - Margin Requirement + Daily P\L (live totals)
as I can see there is the tag 3135 UsePLForMargin to make this part optional: + Daily P\L (live totals) TY. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-01-25 03:30:35

vs 1084 P/L for trade stats are still blank if orders are filled while SC is off. If a position is filled while the SC is off then closed when SC is on. I get the closed position in the PL as a filed working order. While the positions tab does display my open positions correctly. |

We have done a test and we do see a problem with this and we contacted CTS about it and determined the source of the problem. The problem has been resolved definitely in 1086.

You guys are AWESOME!!!!! Thank you for all the time and effort you put in to fixing the chart loading and trade stat issues. I have had all the charts and history I need since working with you on the phone Also vs1086 seems to be loading all orders and P/L when logging into SC. This zenfire thing turned into a big mess. Thank you for taking care of the CTS issues. I couldn't be happier with SC and their support. Thank you. |

OK this is good. Keep in mind though that the CTS trading server only has order fills for the current day and they get cleared at the end of the trading day . So you should always connect at least once during the trading day. If there are more order fills available, then this is good.

SC Support This is from CTS Support: Upon an account update (Tag 854=3), your available cash (to trade) is the result of
the sum of Start of Day Balance (Tag 921) + Realized P&L (Tag 900) - Margin Requirements (Tag 899) + Premium (Tag 901). Note that this amount does not take into account (market-price-varying) unrealized P&L for positions open in the market. ty Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-01-29 22:16:19

Have noticed one more thing. The trade activity log (trade activity tab). CTS allows orders to be changed or made using their mobile website. I executed and order using SC on my PC. During the trade session I trailed my stop position using my phone several times before closing the trade at the end of the day. When I open SC the P/L and trade stats all look good. The trade activity tab however only shows my initial order I made using SC. Is there a way to have the orders I made using my phone load into the activity tab? I'm also looking at the trade statistics tab. It doesn't seem to update all the fields. Fields like, Runup and drawdown, Max open position profit/loss are all 0.00. In the highest/lowest position price it only shows my entry price. Every field that does have an entry is reflective of my closed position P/L Date Time Of Last Edit: 2014-01-31 20:39:58

Refer to the documentation for these fields here:http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_TradeActivityLog.php#TradeStatisticsTabFieldsDescriptions In general, you need to have Sierra Chart running and connected to the data feed during the life of a position for these to be properly updated.
