Also, while waiting for a reply I keep trying different things and then write to let you know what I’ve done to fix the problem so you don’t have to write a reply that includes what I’ve already done.
But this only takes more time for us to read through everything. It is not helpful.

You have the ability to save a draft. Would be best that you make all of your notes in a draft and then when you are ready to actually post something, you simplify it and then post it.


The remaining question from all the above posts is if there is anyway to have the commission be deducted from the Trade Window in the P/L and DlyPL sections. Today one of the Sierra copies deducted it in the totals and the other copy did not. Then later both did not.
This relates to the position average price and it is explained here:

Sierra Chart itself does not include any commissions in those calculations but the external trading service may.
