Hi there,

for some reason today when im trading the DPL says +2p, and im trading MES mapped to ES. but the statistics show +100. also my daily loss limit and auto flatten happened because its showing up as 10x my normal rates.

quantity is set to 1 for my trade
Symbol (action) is set to ESZ25_FUT_CME
Trade & Current Quote Sumbol (Action) is set to MESZ25_FUT_CME

for the trade activity log it says
Symbol [SIM] MESZ25_FUT_CME Chart (the name of my chart)
Daily P&L 100.00
Total fills (daily) 6 (i had 1 scratch, 1 1.25p and 1 .75p)
Last trade P/l 37.50


assistance would be appreciated.

Also check your "Currency Value per Tick" and make sure it is set appropriately for the "Trade and Current Quote Symbol". Refer to the following:
