Hi guys,

I wonder if you can help me? I've noticed that when looking at the trading log, the calcualtions seem to be classing a scratch trade [i.e. open and close at same price level] as a winner when excluding commission but a loser when including comms - A scratch should be classified as a third possible trade outcome, i.e it should not consider commissions as that is a fixed cost of trading. Also, classing it as a winner despite having a nil net trade outcome .... Would you mind correcting this please? The correct outcomes should be as follows:
Win ie.. exit price more favourable then entry price
Lose ie.. exit price less favourable then entry price
Scratch i.e. exit price and entry price are equal.

Many thanks

Alun

Are you using a broker that doesn't charge commissions? i.e. A Forex broker?
