Public/Proprietary:
PUB (PUBLIC) MARKET PRICE: If selected, the system will use the public market/settlement price obtained from various Exchange sources to perform calculations
PTY (PRIVATE/PROPRIETARY) MARKET PRICE: If selected, the system will use the proprietary market/settlement price that you have input/uploaded in Proprietary Market Data
Auto-Update：
Tick: Resets the dates to default once you leave the ‘Dashboard’ page.
Untick: Dates according to your settings remain unchanged once you leave the ‘Dashboard’ page.
Historical GPPL (related to Historical Group P/L app)：
The Historical check box in Settings page is used to determine if you want the Compare Date to use Existing Calculated Data or Historical Saved Data for P/L comparison. This means that if you have saved the historical data for the specific End Date, you may:
tick the Historical check box to compare End Date data against Compare Date (use historical saved data) - Compare with historical Group P/L data - Historical Group P/L data will be stored in database on a daily basis and once stored, it will not be updated. (MAF will only update for yesterday data so once user reload the Group P/L app, MAF will insert or update data if the end date is yesterday).
untick the Historical check box to compare End Date data against Compare Date (use existing calculated data) - Compare with Group P/L from open position calculation - Daily change of open position result will always use the latest position data to do calculations
If historical data is not available (no data is saved for the specific End Date), the respective CHG will remain as empty or 0 or the app will display a message (NO VALID OPEN POSITIONS).
