Market Analyzer P&L Column and other Q

[biegea]

Over what time period should P&L be calculated?

Semi-unrelated question: with regard to the "number of bars back" property, how do we specify what the timeframe is?

Hi biegea,

Thanks for writing in today!

1.) PnL shown will be the current day's PnL. (12:00:00 AM - 11:59:59 PM on your local PC's clock)

2.) This will apply differently depending on the columns used in the Market Analyzer. That said, columns where this type of setting would be critical like Indicators will include an area to set the interval of data used for the column.

P&L

Thank you, Kyle -- strangely, my P&L column is showing today & yday's total P&L. (The "Account Performance" graphs reflect the correct Profit for today and today+yday, respectively.)

Hi biegea,

Have you restarted NinjaTrader in the past 24 hours?

I'm not sure - what is the expected behavior either way?

Hi biegea,

We should see just the current day, but I have seen other behavior when NinjaTrader is left running for days at a time.
