I have a problem with the correct result display

Although I entered the commission in Global, Symbol Settings, the result is displayed differently:

- once without commission
- once on commission

What do I have to do to make sure that the result (as entered in the Settings icon) is displayed correctly.

The issue is not clear for us but if you want to see the commission value included with profit/loss calculations in a chart, then enable this setting for the chart:
Chart Settings: Use Symbol Commission Setting in Trade List and Statistics Calculations (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu)

I have here the instrument M2KH20.

For this I have entered a commission of 0.78 in Global Settings / Symbol settings.

nevertheless I get different P/L - displays for the same trade and in the same chartbook.

- once 11T (wrong, because the commission was not considered)
- once 9Ts (correct because the commission was deducted correctly)
