Re: Display trades made directly with TWS
Hello Fabrice,
The trades made directly with TWS will appear on MultiCharts chart if the symbol mapping is setup properly for this instrument.

Even if the chart is a custom futures ?
I have just made a test on custom futures. MC displays the open position. But does not display entry and exit point on the chart. The Trade Performance Report does not mention the trade. The "Orders" tab of OPT does not mention it.

Yes, custom futures should be mapped to the instrument you are trading from TWS.Even if the chart is a custom futures ?
Please keep in mind that MultiCharts can display the information about filled orders (placed from TWS) only when MultiCharts is open. If MultiCharts is closed and you are trading from TWS then once you open MultiCharts you will be able to see the active orders and current positions, but not the orders that were filled while MC was closed.
Re: Display trades made directly with TWS
From what I understand, if MC is running, everything should be displayed as if orders were sent from MC : entry/exit displayed on the chart, Trade Performance Report filled with the trade.
MC was open during the test I have made. I will have a check on 8.5 beta 1. If only the open position is displayed, I will let you know for debugging because, in this case, it does not seem to work as expected.
