You can view your historical executions and orders in the Account Performance tab. Under From and To select the desired dates you wish to see the report of and press Generate

You then can view the Executions & Orders tabs within the 'Account Performance' tab in the Control Center.

Commission can be included in your PnL calculations provided you have correctly configured NinjaTrader. Commission values can be defined for each connectivity provider per instrument and per instrument type.

I have provided publicly available links below to our YouTube that goes over setting up commissions values:

Hello hellboy78,

Thank you for your response with these details.

You can generate a report in the Account Performance tab of the Control Center to view your past trade performance. The Trades tab of the generated report will give you detailed PnL for each trade placed. This report can be customized to display the values in Currency, Percent or Points. You can change the value by changing the 'Mode'.

Here is a link to a publicly available YouTube video which goes over the Account Performance tab in the Control Center in further detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnIayK2SMEk

Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any other NinjaTrader inquiries in the future.

Correct, you will need to establish your Commission values in order for them to be reflected on the platform. You can do so by following the instruction I had previously provided. You can either set the commission values by the instrument within the instrument manager, or you can establish them by the instrument type in the 'Commissions' section of the options window:

Please follow the instructions below to define commission values per instrument type:

• From within the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools > Options
