I am troubleshooting differences between the Daily PnL (DPL) we see in the trade window vs. the trade activity log I have a specific question: In the trade window attached to chart I see flat and daily pnl 0 In the Trade Activity log, Chart Stats, I see open P/L and Open Quantity Is the above scenario possible and does it make sense? I was assuming they both use the same trade list so I should be seeing the same values. |

Yes it does make sense. But you should definitely see a line for that particular symbol and trade account on the Chart Stats tab, which matches with this: In the trade window attached to chart I see flat and daily pnl 0

I took a look again today after your comment In the Chart Stats tab, there is one line for NQ I tested this with "Load Order Fills For Current Day Only" checked and un-checked Load Order Fills For Current Day Only Checked Chart trade window - position flat, open pnl 0, daily pnl -1.25P Chart stats (TAL) - open quantity 0, daily pnl -25, open pnl 0 Load Order Fills For Current Day Only Un-Checked Chart trade window - position flat, open pnl 0, daily pnl +5.25P Chart stats (TAL) - open quantity 1, daily pnl 105, open pnl -295 What I don't understand is why the chart stats are different from the trade window |

This is explained here: Trade Activity Log: Setting the Profit/Loss Format The Open Profit Loss on the Chart Stats tab is going to be calculated based upon the order fills. It is not based upon the current Position Average Price as you see on the Trade Window. For an understanding of this, refer to: Trade Activity Log: Open Quantity Field Calculation Method This should be more clear when you look over the field descriptions here: Trade Activity Log: Chart Stats Field Descriptions Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
