Hello,

SC 1827

There seems to be some issue here with commissions on short positions : see attached image (sim account)- Same issue occurs with real account.

Short positions :
Commission appears as a negative number, which seems then substracted from PL ==> the net PL is incorrectly greater than the P&L without commission.

Long positions :
Commission appears as a positive number, which seems then substracted from PL ==> the net PL is correctly smaller than the P&L without commission.

Hope this helps,
Regards,
JM

V. 1829 has fixed the negative commission problem. Thanks!

However, the FlatToFlat Profit/Loss (C) column is incorrect when Use Commission is checked. There are redundant commission subtractions causing the FlatToFlat P/L to be less than it should be.

The attached image demonstrates the problem.

V. 1830 now displays different numbers in the FlatToFlat Profit/Loss column than 1829.
Still wrong.
