kamaralikhan in General
Hello,
During the day if i opened and closed the position on one Symbol (e.g IDBI).
Suppose i again open a position in IDBI, how do i get pnl of this latest trade.

Following is the IDBI net position which i get, (note that day position gives the same Json)


{"tradingsymbol":"IDBI","exchange":"NSE","instrument_token":377857,"product":"MIS","quantity":-350,
"overnight_quantity":0,"multiplier":1,"average_price":52.65,"close_price":0,"last_price":53.5,"value":18550,
"pnl":-175,"m2m":-175,"unrealised":-175,"realised":0,"buy_quantity":350,"buy_price":52.3,"buy_value":18305,
"buy_m2m":18305,"sell_quantity":700,"sell_price":52.65,"sell_value":36855,"sell_m2m":36855,"day_buy_quantity":350,
"day_buy_price":52.3,"day_buy_value":18305,"day_sell_quantity":700,
"day_sell_price":52.65,"day_sell_value":36855}

is there no way to find out the pnl on the latest trade ?

thanks

    I want to find the pnl on the position highlighted above. I dont find any way to identify it based on the json object for day or net.

    You need to look at orderbook to check this.
    You find the difference between the product of the average price and quantity of BUY and SELL order.

    It will be something like this,
    P&L = (average_price*quantity) of entry order - (average_price*quantity) of exit order.

    This will again give me the same pnl which is already in the json object of postion.
    A simple filed in pos would have sufficed. Now there is such a big overhead of coding to find out the pnl of last trade.
    I need to assume that the orders list i receive is in sequence. Hoping that is true assumption.

    A consolidated position is something we get from the OMS. That's the way it was designed. I am afraid we can't change that.
    In the above method, you can find the P&L of a particular order.

    what is the difference between pnl,m2m,unrealised

    If I had taken one position and closed it in loss of 1K
    And I ented again, There should be some factor like unrealised should give me ZERO 0 (just now I opened position)


    So, That I can easily know the new active PNL.

    So, PNL means total PNL
    Unrealised means : New PNL

    Why can't u implement in this way,
    Everybody will be happy.
