All trading accounts in the US are netting accounts. However, I can't recall but I believe Sierra Charts had a way of keeping individual orders separate if a Target Profit and Stop Loss is attached to each individual order (bracket order). I can't recall if this was just for visual purposes or if it had a way of actually keeping the orders separate. If you could let me know how the software treats these types of orders it would be appreciated. Thanks.

We are not sure what exactly you are asking. If you are trading a single account and have put in multiple separate orders with their own Target and Stop, then the Position line in Sierra Chart shows the average price of those orders. You do not see the individual positions. But the Targets and Stops will be shown separately if they are at different prices. You can also have a line connecting the orders so that you know which ones go together. Refer to the following: Trading Information Windows: How Average Price for Positions Is Calculated and Used If you are trading different accounts that are available under a single login to the broker, then you would need to have separate charts for each account, in which case each position is shown separately. You can only display the positions/orders for a single account on a chart. If the accounts require different logins, then you need to use separate Sierra Chart installations to access each account at the same time, in which case the positions/orders will only display for each account within each installation.
