No the DPL is being calculated wrong it should be showing -.75 instead of 4.50P not sure why is there trade thats not being closed?

so the screenshot is showing the trade executed and DPL is calculated based on trade not being seen.

Is it a Pending trade, as it working but not open? Or is it an Open trade? Also, are you in simulated or live mode?

If this is an old trade that did not close, then this means that the system did not receive the fill for closing the position. You would need to manually enter the closing fill to offset it properly. Refer to the following:
Trade Activity Log: Manually Inserting Missing Order Fills

Also refer to the following to help find what is missing:

I can’t tell I’m guessing it’s from the Sierra glitch that happened yesterday and not sure how to investigate it at this point.perhaps easier to speak over the phone

Please set your "Trade Activity Log" to display all the data that would include this "phantom" trade. Then make sure you are on the "Trade Activity" tab and select "File >> Save Log As" and then save the log and then attach it to this thread for us to look through it. You can attach the log privately. Refer to the following for how to attach a file:

If you are referring to an incorrectly reported Trade Position, then refer to:
Trading Information Windows: Incorrectly Reported Trade Position Quantity

Editing the fills will have no effect upon this.

If you are referring to an order, then refresh the orders list:
Trade Menu: Refresh Trade Data From Service (Trade menu)

Editing/inserting order fills is not going to have any effect upon this. Editing the order fills might be useful to correct an incorrect Daily Profit/Loss or a problem with the display of order fills on the chart. Otherwise, it is not going to make any difference.
