    profit/loss index

    Could anyone tell me the formule how the profit/loss index is calculated.??
    It has something to do with profitable trades and unprofitable trades, but I don't seem to be able
    to make the exact calculation.

    Tonjacobi,

    Traditionally, the P/L index is computed by:

    Sum (Open positions and wins)
    --------------------------------------------------------- x 100
    Sum(Open positions, wins and loses)


    I am not sure if this how MS does it, maybe you would like to check it out and report back?



    Hope this helps.
