Default Commission

Do the commission settings in Tools>Options>Commission override the settings in Tools>Instrument Manager?

Jason,
I set commissions for Currencies for both Gain and Simulator
at both the Instrument level and the Options->Commission Level
but the Perfromance Strategy Results tabs still show 0 for Commission (?)
I'm on 1000.13

(Do I need to reset/repair DB?)

Hello trend,

Note that commissions will only be applied for trades made after you setup commissions. Could this be the case?

Now that you setup commissions, I suggest to perform some simulation trades and check if commission is calculated as expected.

Default Modify Prior Transactions

Is there a way to manually update the records in the database for transactions where we did not have the commission value entered ahead of time?

Thanks.
