Hello, my DOM DPL (p&L) is not correct . I only made a few scalps and it says 32P. Any idea what may be wrong? See attached screenshots

You checked what? What did you do, and why is it off? The documentation explains to use the Trades tab of the trade activity log to view the fills and trades from the same starting Date-Time you have used in the chart. And the Trade Statistics tab shows the daily statistics including the daily profit/loss.

Also be aware of the Daily Reset time and how that is determined:
Trade Activity Log: Understanding Daily Trade Statistics Reset Time


Of course the documentation explains this.

The documentation is all very clear here. We do not know what to tell you because we do not know what your fills are and the times of those and the chart settings. With you looking at the documentation and the settings, and the fills you can determine what the issue is.

So please tell us what the problem is. If you want us to look at this remotely we can do it for an additional cost.

I read all of the “ refer to this page “

I did not change anything except update to version 2204. Before I did that everything was perfect. All settings based on the info you gave me is correct .

Nevermind. I had to delete my DOM and move a working one from a different chartbook. Was fine before the 2204 version update.

Nevertheless, we are going to prepare simplified instructions to go through this. First step would be to check that you have all of the fills within Sierra Chart in the Trade Activity Log. That should not be a problem being you are using the Sierra Chart Order Routing Service.

The other question is what is considered the start of the trading day for you so we can instruct you how to set the Session Times in the chart or Trading DOM where you are looking at the daily profit/loss in.

Nothing has changed with how the Daily Profit/Loss is calculated in newer versions. It remains the same.

I hear you, and that all makes sense but...

Last night I went side by side with my 2 chartbooks on both my screens . 1 DOM worked 1 didn’t.

I literally went setting by setting and could not see the issue anywhere .

So to make my life easier , I just transferred the working dom.
