I have recently evaluated SuperCharts and now TradeStation. When I run either version of Bill's program in SC the System Report correctly reports the profit/loss values for any trade. But, in TS they don report correctly. Is this just me? (I know, I'm not supposed to be testing yet! Ummmm, I was . . . I was testing the testing!)
What happens is that it only reports the change in the unit price. E.g., if cotton goes up $.25 then the profit should be $125, but I only get $.25.
I have contacted Omega and checked what they suggested: that the big point value in the Symbols is 500 and in the system format section, under stops the "Apply on per contract basis" is ticked.
They have suggested that I send in the system for their review but I thought I'd ask here first.
