Dear Dhan team , @PravinJ , @Dhan @Dhan_Cares
Please consider bringing trade wise p&L and position line logic in dhan charts rather then current average price system. Where if we take multiple trade in same strike price it shows average p&l and position line on chart ..
It should be trade specific and should always show p&l and position line based on current open trade not the past trades …
It creates confusion tracking exact P&L of current trade . Please consider this feature ….
Yes, it’s kind of confusing. I have to manually calculate my profit and loss, or I try to avoid entering the same strike more than once. Instead, I have to choose a different strike just to avoid the confusion.
Thanks for sharing your feedback.
The current behavior is intentional and follows the standard industry approach. Exchanges maintain positions at the instrument level, where all trades in the a contract are combined into a single net position with an average price. Dhan follows the same methodology, which is why the chart displays the position line and P&L based on the consolidated net position rather than individual trades.
Showing trade-wise position lines on the chart would diverge from how positions are actually maintained at the exchange level and could result in a view that doesn’t represent your true open exposure.
Just imagine, it is going to be nightmare for a scalper.
For reviewing the performance of individual trades (entries and exits), the Orderbook/Tradebook provides an execution-wise record.
Hello @Naman @dhan @PravinJ thankyou for the reply , I understand that the current system might be good for some traders but I have recently seen platforms actually giving users an option to use between the two systems… Recently I have seen this on Upstox ..
If dhan doesn’t want to change the current system for the reasons I completely understand it should give users a choice to choose between the current net average base system or trade wise system …
Or
If changing the current system is not possible then please consider adding a section somewhere in the window which shows unrealised P&L and realised P&L for which unrealised P&l should be strictly based on current open positions ….
Dhan can do this easily on Dext T3 trading terminal..
Waiting for the response……
…
Please consider this, as mentioned provide an option in settings to choose between average or per order basis
Hey @arun2282 ,
Good to see you on community after a long time. Hope things have been good.
We understand your suggestion! However, this is how position line works, exchanges consolidate all trades in a contract into one net position at an average price. So, the position line reflects P&L based on the average price, not individual trades.
