6.5.1000.2

Version 6.0 had the Column "Realized + Unrealized PnL" which I use continuously. Why did you remove it from version 6.5?

Could you add it back or suggest a way to duplicate it?

thanks,
shawnj

Hi Shawnj:

Thank you for your post.

1) Open a Market Analyzer in Version 6.5.
2) Right click and select Columns...
3) Do you see "Realized + Unrealized PnL" in the Columns List?

The link you gave me is Version 6.0 which I know has it. My complaint is you removed it in verion 6.5.

thanks,

Unfortunately the combination of both columns no longer is available in NT6.5, only the 2 separate columns.

Hi Shawnj:

To add these specific columns, go to the Columns list and choose the 'Realized ProfitLoss' and "UnrealizedProfitLoss" columns.

Thanks.

Your killing me :).

I know how to add columns. I've been using columns in version 6.0 for however long 6.0 has been out. I'm trying to transition from version 6.0 to version 6.5.

When trading realtime, the most important value relating to you account is the PandL of your closed trades combined with the PandL of all open trades. That is what in Version 6.0 the column "Realized + Unrealized PnL" shows.

Again my orginal question is "Why would you remove "Realized + Unrealized PnL" in version 6.5. Whas this just an oversite, or is there some other reason?

thanks,
shawnj

Actually what you are looking for should be available as "ProfitLoss". Same thing, just a new "name". Sorry for confusion...
