Hi terry,
I have been going back and forth with Marcin all day long....We simply can NOT get it to function correctly.Not only that,if I run LONG trades only from settings,I am still getting P&L from short trades under reports..
If I run short trades only,I am still getting p&L from the long trades under reports..Even more bizzare is the same P&L number is poping up when it shouldnt....Plus the net trades do not = short +long p&L...
The code was very simple and he has checked my settings and code..I will send along some attatchments,but please bare with me..I am a programming IDIOT!!!
Allan
