Goo to hear, thanks. For the connections without history, it would be nice to be able to import statements, even in a generic way, from Excel format, in order to fill the cheese holes (it’s easy to miss a day). An incomplete track record is not worth much
To be noted, Tradervue has statement imports which are connection specific so have been optimized)

Other than that, we opt out of the leaderboard, is it guaranteed our trading won’t be scrutinized ?

Yes - that's on the way!

If you opt out of the leaderboard, no-one can see your trading - it's all locked up on a secure server.

About this module, are the commissions only applied on past trades, requiring a manual intervention often to correct the new trading data, or can this helper apply these settings for present and future realtime trades as well (despite new expiry contracts) ?
I’d expect for something that can be configured as “set and forget”, once and for good. Thanks

Commissions are automatically applied to new trades.

But you can also re-apply commission rates to old trades using the option in the video.

Other questions if you don’t mind.

Looking at the P&L calendar, specifically the “max DD” and “max gain” stats, are those derived from open or closed trades ? By that I mean, is the definition “intra-trade”, are the market data extremes during a position is held taken into account, including MFE/MAE or only entry/exit data ?

It's based on intra-trade but depends on the connection - and whether we get L1 data or not via the feed.

What about Tradovate through CQG WebAPI for order routing / execution only, getting L2 data aside from Sierra Chart (no market data rented from Tradovate) ?
Anyway, are you implying the intra-trade definition would only apply if connected in realtime, as opposed to collecting trade data at the end of the day ? Thx again

May I suggest that you add a mention somewhere to distinguish between track records that are fully imported by connection as “certified” and those who will come from manual imports or hybrid constructed, so that shared online (from screenshots or from your app), one can attest if it can be considered as accredited/official versus potentially tweaked

Absolutely - in fact, imported trades will not be on the leaderboard.

But if you, as a prop firm manager, get permission to access history for a prospective employee, you will also see which are imported or not.

In that case, that would currently be based on fills only.

TraderVue is able to use its own market data source in order to derive intra-trade definition, despite manual imports. Hope you can get inspired

To do this for futures trading requires a fairly hefty data fee from the CME - Tradervue focuses mostly on Forex, where data is free (although variable).

We derive intra trade data on the customer side to update the dd/pnl during the trade.

Will this software work with the Sierra Charts data feed for the HKex exchange? Note this is not their Denali feed, but their barcharts supplied feed.
