I'd like to change how PnL is shown on the chart
You can customize how profit & loss (PnL) is displayed on the chart in your Trading settings:
Available display formats:
- Money ($) – shows your PnL in the monetary value (e.g. +$25.00).
Useful for quickly assessing how much you’ve made or lost in absolute terms.
- Ticks – displays PnL in tick units(or pips for forex symbols) (e.g. +5 ticks).
A common choice for traders who work with tick-based strategies.
- Percentage (%) – shows PnL relative to the entry price (e.g. +2.5%).
Helpful for comparing performance across different trades or instruments.
You can configure these settings separately for:
- Active positions
- Bracket orders (Take Profit and Stop Loss levels)
This gives you flexibility to view PnL in the format that best suits your trading style.
