The following section describes the various notations that you could see from time to time in the Open Positions and Resize columns of Portfolio Performance (Daily Detail tab).
In this example, the MULTIPLIER keyword is used to increase the size of the same Long Canadian Dollar (CDL) by 50%.
We’re alerted to this by the notation under the Resize column, which tell us that six (6) contracts are added in the Long direction (+L6), from within a category, using MULTIPLIER (ml).
The new size of 6 contracts is reflected in the notation for the next day, under the Open Position column. |

Lock limit – "#"
In this example, the notation KCS22s4 under Open Positions denotes a Coffee trade (CD) that is Short 22 contracts (S22) from System 4 (s4).
The pound sign “#” that subsequently appears in the notation (KCS#22s4), denotes lock-limit days (high=low), and is displayed irrespective of trade direction. |

Holiday – "Ü"

For Futures this indicates the amount by which required margin has exceeded current equity. Margin is a user supplied item in Symbol Properties.
For Stocks and Funds this indicates the amount by which a purchase has exceeded current TOTALCASH.
