So it's Monday and markets just opened. When I booted up sierra my PnL was rightfully 0 Points. Immediately upon taking a trade, my displayed PnL has shot up to 178 Points. This sort of thing has been happening for the past week, and yes, I've already gone through the steps that are normally posted in regards to incorrect PnL being displayed.

Other times I have been positive 1xx Points, open a position and all of a sudden I'm up 2xx Points.

I'm using Rithmic. My PnL shows correctly in my 3rd party trade copier.

In addition, I just exited a bad trade, which should have brought my PnL down, but it in fact went up.

I am sending logs.

The way to correct this is explained at the following link:

If you have gone through the above and are still having a problem, then the date and time that you have entered for the chart loading of order fills must be set to a bad time. You need to set this to where you are flat in the market and from where the order fills are correct going forward. The easiest solution is to be flat in the market and then enter the current date and time.
