Realized PnL Minus Commission

[bce111]

Hi

The realized PnL minus commissions isn't showing in the accounts tab in the Control Window. Just the profit is showing. But it is calculating the actual profit including subtracting the commission in the Account performance tab. I have the "Use last price for PnL" and "Apply commission to PnL calculations" boxes checked in the Options > Tools window.

Hello bce111,


Thank you for your forum post.


'Apply commissions to PnL' does not affect reports you generate under the Control Center --> Account Performance-tab. This option applies to PnL displays such as in the SuperDOM and ChartTrader (Where is shows a black box displaying "PnL" when flat)


Commissions are included in the Total Net profit. Commissions are already included in the Gross Profit and Loss as well.


You can view it in the Account Performance --> Trades-tab as well. The 'Profit' column already includes the commission. You can check this by calculating the PnL using the entry & exit price for a trade.

I'm talking about in the Accounts tab under Cash Value and Realized PnL. It's not showing the commissions being deducted. It just shows the Account Value which includes today's trading profit without the commissions being deducted and the PnL without the commissions being deducted.

Thank you for the follow up.


The values in the accounts tab is appended as it is received from your broker.
