The values for the Flat to Flat Max Open Loss & Max Open Loss are incorrect.

I attached a screenshot which should make it clearer.

The Max Open Loss for each of the 3 trades should be -2.

The Flat to Flat Max Open Loss should be -6.

Additionally, what would cause the LowDuringPosition to move higher?

Thank you for the update.

I replayed your test scenario and achieved the same results.

Would you retest using the attached configuration file?

1. Set the replay start at 2019-06-10 09:29:30.
2. Execute a limit buy Qty:3 with Use Attached Orders checked at 2890.75.
3. The first target should fill at 2894.75 around 09:38:52.

At that point my Max Open Loss goes from 0 to the incorrect value and the Low Price While Open gets set to 0 as seen in the screen shot.

My chart symbol is ESM19_FUT_CME, trade and current quote symbol MESM19_FUT_CME, use as trade only symbol checked.

The Flat to Flat Max Open Loss & Max Open Loss are correct.

Shouldn't the the LowDuringPosition on the Trade Activity tab match the Low Price While Open on the Trades tab?

No. You need to refer to the documentation for those fields here:
