It'd be really useful to have one row in Portfolio Trader and in Position Tracker with the sum of all the shares or contracts you have open for each symbol from different strategies.
In this way when you have many strategies on the same symbol you can see at glance that the number is the same than in your broker.
Regards.

Re: Total number of contracts or shares for each asset in PT
One bug in last MC 9 realease candidate version is that GetRTAccountEquity funtion doesn't work with Interactive Broker.
Please review it!

Hello Pablo,
You can find information regarding the current open positions at broker on Positions tab in Order and Position Tracker window of Portfolio Trader. If you need a different value then you can calculate it yourself and plot it in the Custom Text column.

This function has been tested - it works ok. Make sure you are using the function properly and that auto trading is enabled on this chart.One bug in last MC 9 realease candidate version is that GetRTAccountEquity funtion doesn't work with Interactive Broker.

I know I can see the current open positions at broker but I want to see the net sum of my strategies position to see if it is match with the broker position.
For instance if I have ten strategies on SPY and they sum 9394 shares it must match with 9394 shares at broker. If in Portfolio trader you put it in a row, it'd save a lot of time otherwise I have to check and sum each one separately.

I'm using it in MC 8.8 from a long time and it works right. I think it's a problem of the last version.

Sorry you're right it works fine. The problem was with the currency USD by EUR.
But with MC 9 in some cases the open positios at broker don't appear on chart like 8.8, in others don't appear the position profit and in others appear both. I thinke it's a kind of mismatch with the financial advisor account.
Do you know something about?

Please delete the symbol mapping for the problem instrument, then re-add the instrument from the data provider, re-add the mapping.Sorry you're right it works fine. The problem was with the currency USD by EUR.
