No money going in Realized P&L when trade closes

[jlm0@infionline.net]

It seems that no money is being shown in the realized column of control center upon closing out of a trade.

Which column?

- Accounts tab
- Strategies tab

If Strategies tab, is it a NinjaScript strategy or ATM strategy

Thanks

I am talking about closed trades from a ninjascript strategy not appearing in the Realized column under the Strategies tab.

Thanks for the clarification.

I created a new strategy with only the following code in OnBarUpdate()


if (Historical)
return;

EnterLong();
ExitLong();


I ran it in real-time on a 20 second chart. On each closed trade the "Realized" column under the Strategies tab updates --> Working as expected in this situation.

If you have a reproducible scenario that would be great.

This is to confirm that there are no results showing in Realized P&L under the Strategies Tab or the Account Tab for Currency Strategy trading.
This apparently is preventing the following code from working:

if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Long && Position.GetProfitLoss(Close[0], PerformanceUnit.Currency) + Performance.RealtimeTrades.TradesPerformance.Curre ncy.CumProfit > 100)
ExitLong("lg");
return;

After further investigation, it seems that there is no problem. Are you on MBT FX? If yes, please increase your order quantity.

1 = 1.
10,000 = 1 MBT lot = 10,000 in notional value etc...

I am on Gain, and I can assure you that no results are showing in Realized P&L under Strategies TAb or Account tab.

[NinjaTrader_Ray]

I am not disputing that you do not see any results.

Please change your quantity to a value of 100,000 and see if it makes a difference.

Thanks.

Disregard my last request on testing with 100,000. Will come back to you after I run some tests with GAIN.

[jlm0@infionline.net]

Using 100,000 for quantity seems to get the money right in Realized P&L for Accounts tab, but wild looking numbers in Unrealized P&L.

We will have this resolved in Beta3. You will need to place orders on GAIN in simulation for 100,000 = 100,000. When trading GAIN live, 1 = your lot size, either a mini lot of 10,000 or standard lot of 100,000.

[jlm0@infionline.net]

When do you expect to have Beta 3 available?
