My PNL is constantly miscalculating?
My PNL is way off from what it should show? It should be around +$ 700 or so and it shows -$7,712.00? I know this was an issue with previous revs of NT? I thought it may have to do with a decimal place being off for ZG, but this happened on days when I didn't even trade ZG? Can someone shed some light on this?

Dan,
This means your database is too large to send over. What you can do is to send it through www.yousendit.com
Then send it to [email protected]
For finding the database as attachment you need to go here: C disk--> Program Files--> NinjaTrader5--> DB
Before you send it over, can you generate a report from the last time your were flat overnight. Then check the executions and positions column. Does the value in there matches with your real trades. If not, then there are executions missing.

Vince I will send the db over. Honestly it's hard to say if the executions match the real trades because I am trading on the sim and paper trading a new trade set up. I checked a number of them now against many of my paper trades, not all, and they appear to match up on executions. That said, how could I be missing executions? Shouldn't NT log everything? You are starting to worry me a bit on that one. :shock:

Dan,
The problem is the tick size for the EMD instrument in the Instrument Manager is set to 10 instead of 0.10. This would inflate your PnL by a factor of 100. Please go into the Instrument Manager, select the EMD instrument, press the Edit button and change the TickSize from 10 to 0.10. This will not resolve your trades today since the execution prices are already recorded based on the 10 tick size.

Ray, I set it to .1 as you suggested. That's the closed option on instrument manager. Now my feed doesn't match up with TT/Velocity's? I have no live data and I show number at 76899.2 etc? Could you help me/help Velocity get this thing squared away?

Ray I just figured it out on my own. The correct way to do it is to set tick to 10 and point value to 1, not .01, otherwise you don't get the data feed. Unless you say definitively that's not right I will leave it at that. If it is incorrect they Velocity must have something set up incorrect as I way their first NT TT data customer to trade EMD.
