Often we say we made 10 points on this trade or 25 on that one. How do you calculate points per trade when you scale out of a trade.
GCB...here is how IntereactiveBrokers summarizes my trading day. In the attached summary it shows the contract traded, the number of buys ,number of sells,the average buy price, average sell price. So today I took 5 round trips for a net/contract of 790.14-789.50 = 0.64pts/contract traded
