Is the Total little t ticks in the Trade Activity Log calculated incorrectly?

Shouldn't the Total (t)icks in attached image be 13t?

Refer to the documentation here for the calculation method:
Trade Activity Log: Trades Fields Descriptions

refer to the description for Total Profit/Loss.

Does an average make more sense than a total here?

I guess it's handy either way. Thank you!

Do you mean rather than summing the ticks when using the Ignore Quantity format, to perform an average instead? Yes that may make sense.

To me total makes more sense than average.

Right now each line item is totaled but the Total at the bottom is averaged, which does seem a little inconsistent.


(I love your software)

Also, is there a technical reason why the Trade Activity Log is unable to show T or t ticks in the Profit / Loss column when All Symbols are selected?
