TOS Position statement color coding P/L

[2sureshk]

Can you someone help with the setting to view the Position statement P/L in Green and Red . also if it is lose with (-) and profit with (+) symbol?

If there is an existing view or separate code available that would be much appreciated?

Thanks,
Suresh K

It is under "Studies" called PositionOpenPL.

My question is about the "P/L Open" on the Monitor tab. to describe my scenario lets say I open a position on Monday for $100 and each day my position makes $10 in the "P/L day" column so on Friday I'm showing $10 in my "P/L/ Day" and $50 in my "P/L Open" but as soon as I close my position the "P/L Open" goes to $0.00. I would like to be able to just get any idea each day of what I made or lost. I know the positions go away overnight I would just like to see something at least at the end of the trading day to say I made $50 or I lost $50. I am wondering if this a missing column I can add or maybe a custom column that I could calculate it for a rough idea as where it is, I know there are fees I'm just looking for rough idea at the end of the day.

Hi guys,
I'm looking for what seems to be a simple indicator: Displaying the closed PnL on a chart. Is that possible?

@giorgio You can try FloatingPL thats built into TOS or you can right click the strategy on your chart and click Show Report.

Apparently not once the position is closed. But you can add p/l stuff to the watchlist columns.

Thanks guys. I was hoping to get PnL just going through some of my trades on the charts.

Can someone help me with a custom script to show P/L Open green or red? on the watchlist.

Thank you..

@BrazucaNY What you are asking for would be somewhat difficult, but not impossible... The issue is that even though there is currently a P/L Open column already, it cannot be edited... It also cannot be referenced in a Custom Column... Therefore, the P/L Open would need to calculated manually... I, personally, don't have the time or desire to give it a go but perhaps one of our members will be able to assist you...

Oh, and welcome to the forums...
