Hi

I dont think that I am misunderstanding anything, however if I am then if you would clarify my points below then I think I definately will be understanding correctly.

1) In my post #28, I explain a simple LIFO trading scenario demonstrating what should be displayed (as a result of two simple trades using LIFO) in the Daily & Running P/L.
My question is, Does my LIVE trading account mirror SC's daily / running P/L at every point (using my example in #28) where SC is submitting to the Exchange the correct orders to close out
with reference to that particular last opening trade I.E LIFO or is SC just sending random close orders with no reference to anything else other than itself?

2) You mention in your post #6 and #29 about "cleaning up" a previous developers code for this particular issue and also saying you have implemented a "major simplification of the code", could it
be fair to assume with everything you have told me up until this point, that there may have been a REALLY REALLY good reason that the original code was NOT "Simplified" or simple in the first
place?

I am sooooo really really trying to work with you guys, VERSION 1810 worked as it should do in every way, I stand to be corrected by fact but it seems to be my understanding that you have TOTALLY brain damaged one of the most important CORE implementations of Sierra Chart.

Furthermore, having a Daily & Running P/L that has no bearing or reference to reality is a complete waste of time and only useful in a "non real world" environment or a "game" scenario.

PLEASE PLEASE tell me Ive got it all wrong and that Sierra Chart does indeed send orders to the Exchange WHICH REFERENCE the order matching system currently using i.e. FIFO, LIFO etc etc

I look forward to your comments

Best regards
