Hi,
I am having the issue I had when I first got a trading platform with you, and we absolutely need to sort this. If I have a position overnight it carries over onto my dom the next day screwing up my dom. So last friday I went home -1 ES micro. I covered that short yesterday buying one on sunday evening open. The position at my clearer this morning is FLAT but the SC dom is showing me long 1. WTF?! So I don't know why the -1 was not on the dom come Sunday evening open(which is what a normal trading platform would show) but yet this morning Tuesday, the extra one I bought yesterday is showing on the dom!!! I just bought and sold 1 lot and so the daily pl is correct with +.025 the p/l shows a p/l from where I just bought back the trade and of course the pos quantity is show LONG 1. Which I most assuredly am NOT.

how do we solve this??? Thanks KK

find attach what I am seeing this morning. So you see a buy and sell, hence a flat position, yet my dom shows me long 1 which I am NOT. no no no

We checked the settings on your account on TT. The problem is Nirvana never set your account to create a start of day position record. They must have assumed you would only be daytrading.

We will follow up with them about this.

Nirvana now has this corrected. Understand that overnight Positions are now going to be reported. The position quantity reported still at this time may not be correct but it will become correct over the weekend.
