Hi, couple quick questions... on my performance reports even if I trade multiple contracts it still only gives me round trip comm. for 1 contract and the gross and net totals are the same #'s. Most likely a easy fix, how do I go about it?

Thanks in advance,

Dave

Hello Dave:

Thank you for your post.

First, from the Control Center, go to Tools > Instrument Manager and highlight the contract in the middle section and click Edit. This will bring up the Instrument Editor. Then click on the Misc tab and click on the '+' button for your datafeed provider. Then enter the minimum commission and click OK.

Then, from the Control Center, go to Tools--> Options--> Commission tab and do the same thing for Futures - Datafeed Provider and click OK.

Then under Tools--> Options--> General tab, make sure that 'Apply Commission to P/L Calculations' is checked.

Hi Ryan,

I just did what you suggested and now it took off the comm. but for still only 1 contract and the gross and the net were still the same # -- a lower # than before.

Thanks again,

Dave
