Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 76% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Professional clients can lose more than they deposit. All trading involves risk.
The value of shares, ETFs and ETCs bought through a share dealing account, a stocks and shares ISA or a SIPP can fall as well as rise, which could mean getting back less than you originally put in. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.

Question

Hi,
Here's another enhancement request for PRT - please pass this on to the IT-Finance guys.
With ProOrder, the main screen shows the latent gain and total gain for all running systems. While this information is great, what I believe is lacking is closed (or banked) profit or loss.
I know it shows this when clicking on the 'view performance' link for each system, but when you are testing a number of strategies (using a demo account), it is not practical to click on and open this for each. As open positions can change quite dramatically the time you view now until they are closed, it would make sense to see your banked profit or loss on the main screen, in order to be able to compare different strategies, for each system.
PS: I know that the banked profit or loss would be the difference between the total gain and latent gain, but if you have 5 or 6 systems running, it is not a simple exercise to do a quick comparison.
I would appreciate some feedback or comments.
Regards
Stef
