Since I have downloaded the new version, I have problems with the trading activity log and P/L display in the chart.
In Chart: P/L should shows "0.68C after the trade" instead of P/L "$80 - commission" . The P/L display during the trade is correct !
And the trade activity log shows points only. It is set for Currency

please advice

followed your advice.
still have same problem.
I am using a fresh installation for 1094 and transferred data from 1077.
I made a fresh installation to make sure.
Version 1077 works without problems. Only version 1094 gives me the problem.
I run another test trade with 1094 after working through the helpdetails77.
As mentioned no change.
During the trading process the P/L shows the accurate "win - commission"
and when the trade finishes the value changes.

What is the symbol you are trading? And what is the order quantity.

And what Data/Trading service are you using?

1. Update Sierra Chart to the current version.

2. For correct Profit/Loss values only use the symbols that you currently see listed in File >> Find Symbol.

You need to have selected the correct Service in File >>Data/Trade Service Settings which correspond to the symbols you are using.

3. In the case of the Sierra Chart Historical Data Service, for futures contracts, the years are two digits. Only use those symbols. There are no Symbol Settings which are necessary for correct profit/loss calculations, for single-digit years.

4. We are not quite sure what the replay problem is you are having. For the documentation for this, refer to:
https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_ReplayChart.html

5. Once again, if you continue to have a problem, review the information given here and make sure you have the proper Symbol Settings applied to the chart:
