I am working on a study to use with Prop firms to track on screen tick-by-tick the current account balance and calculate the remaining amount of dollars left before a person blows their account. I have this done by taking the day begin balance, adding the day profit/loss, and subtracting the commissions for current balance. The challenge I am having is this only works at the symbol level within the account. Many people trade multiple symbols within an account during the day. Is the TradeAccountDataFields.m_CurrentCashBalance the net balance of the account including commissions? If so, I would not have to calculate the account balance. Also, if so, will this update on a tick-by-tick basis or is it dependent on an external service update cycle? Thanks for any help! Mike
