Just a note to say I am also intently waiting for LIFO return. Its very helpful for scalpers and other methods with multiple entries where you need to match exits depending on a specific trade sequence. This can be at times LIFO or FIFO. Let's assume I'm selling a rising market twice. I want to match the second entry with the first exit, at a BE exit and let the first entry for later. No FIFO means that Sierra exits the first (lower priced) short for a large loss, then I have to manually mark what match I actually wanted, and also take great care that the new position price does not confuse me in subsequent trades and the view I have on trade profitability. Also, it would be best if LIFO could be set per chart (if only for viewing purposes, not the trade statistics table). I understand that this could be highly complex, so at the very least please make the option for LIFO as a shortcut, so we can easily toggle on/off. Thanks.
