I have a trade on, according to my Strategies tab, my Positions tab, however, does not show it, nor does my Market Analyzer. This is a bit of a "mix-n-match" bug. Doesn't have to be in that order. It's inconsistent, and I don't know why/how. Maybe my settings somewhere are wrong?

Sorry I can't follow. Please elaborate why a trade which you placed (where? in SuperDOM? else?) should show in a strategy or in market analyzer.

A strategy position is not the same as an account position. If you initially run a strategy, it can be long or short. This does not mean your account actually holds the position. You have to manually add the position to your account if you want them to be in sync.

So ..
Right now.. I have a strategy running with 2 longs on YM

It shows on the Strat tab .. as expected
But I also would expect it to to show in the 'Positions' column on my MA ..
Would also expect to see Realized profit column updating.

Sometimes it does, but right now it's not there ..

Something is amis.

Is this a liveaccount position at your broker? If yes it will show up in the Control Center window Positions tab.

--> If it is a live position and shows up in the Position tab then it will show up in the MA if your MA position column is set to the same live account.

--> If it does not show up, then the position held in your strategy is the position that was historically calculated. This means you now have a choice of syncing your strategy position with your live account.

Excellent.

Once we roll out V6 we will start holding training weekly training sessions on the new features in addition to the classes we hold currently for legacy features.
