Chart DOM position value keeps showing as Points.
Chart Setting > Advance Settings > Position P&L is Currency

I have tried clicking clicking on the P&L at the top of the Chart DOM - nothing happens
Help please

Are you referring to the Open Profit/Loss value?

What is the symbol of the chart?

The p&l that shows in the Chart DOM for the current position in Points or Currency.
Note that I've had it set for Currency (USD) for weeks. Today it changed to Points.
I do not know how this happened and can't figure out to get it back to Currency
thanks

Do you see the Open Profit/Loss reported as a Currency value on the Trade Window.

Yes - top of chart shows P&L is currency $
Also Trade Window for Chart shows as currency $
It's only the Chart DOm that is showing Points

OK, Thanks.
BTW, I think that when one has multiple ES contracts open and General Trade Settings > LIFO is set, the Chart DOM displayed value in currency or points is not accurate.
Will you please check or clarify?

I installed the most current version today and the Chart DOM display of P%L is working correct;y. I can toggle through display formats by clicking on the "P&L" at the column top.

The Position Average Price Calculation is correct based upon how it is determined and the available order fill data it is based upon. This section here explains this in detail:
