Hi Eugene and Cone

First, I hope all is well. WL is brilliant and I have been using it weekly since 2008. Long may it last.

Secondly, I was wondering if we can get commission per trade added to the trade report please? It would be useful as a check / system audit for me please. We have the total commission in the performance report, though it would also be cool to see it as a column in the trade report tab.

Thanks and regards

Hi Rod,

It's exciting to hear that you use and love the program. Much appreciated.

What you're asking for has been available for years. The Performance+ tab has it as "Average one-way Commission". It's part of our Performance Visualizers library.

To use it, install and restart WLD. Check "Performance+" in WL's Preferences > Performance Visualizers to apply. The new tab will appear in new Strategies you open.

Hi Eugene

The above isn't what I was seeking. I don't want an average, but the commission for each trade on the Trades tab. It depends on the number of shares for each time (and the trade size in $) at the time of each trade, at least for IB Bundled comm. It could be placed between the Profit $ and Bars Held columns.

The information is calculated clearly by WL, so it is just a display request.

Can this be done please?

Thanks and regards

Hi Rod,

It wasn't clear from your request and the usage of "performance report" (Performance tab) and "the trade report" (Trades tab) turned out misleading. Now I see what you're after. It's a per trade commission which you want to be added to the Trades tab.

Fortunately, the feature you request exists in our Trades+ tab since I don't know when. You'll find it exactly between the Profit $ and Bars Held columns.

P.S. Actually I know when:

Add commission columns to Trades+ visualizer?

It was added in version 2018.10.
