Hi, As I mentioned before the position line doesn’t appear on the charts or the dom. I wish it did but it doesn’t. And as I mentioned in post #19, if I try to enable the “calculate position from order fills” setting it will revert back by itself to “no”. So, if I have a position on there is no indication on the charts or dom that there is a position open on the instrument and the NPL on the charts will always display zero, not the live NPL. Only after closing the position it will display the correct closed NPL. The order fill markers and connecting lines will be indeed correctly displayed. It is pretty strange. |

Are you doing the trading for the symbol, where you want to see the position line on a chart, from within Sierra Chart? What you are referring to is Use Order Fill Calculated Position and either you are using Trade Window linking, or Trade Window Configurations where it is already set to be off and causing it to change: if I try to enable the “calculate position from order fills” setting it will revert back by itself to “no”.

Yes, orders were placed from Sierra. And yes, the problem could be the linking causing that setting to revert, although it shouldn’t be so because it is configured to change across all charts (3). I will check tomorrow or Monday, thanks for the hint. |
