I will love to see this change. I am used to seeing my P&L in points. It took me a long time to rewire my brain to not focus on the $P&L. I will highly appreciate if you could bring this change to TopstepX

on ninjatrader, all you have to do is tap click the P&L and it will cycle through $, ticks, points, percentage. It's extremely useful and I feel like they could easily implement that. In addition to what you wrote, I would like to be able to see how many total ticks I accumulated throughout the day by clicking the days "RP&L" at the top of the screen

Agreed! Its nice seeing your currently position shown in Points. Helps keep me focused on price instead of how much I have made/lost

I totally agree, and I did also already request this. We should have the option of changing running PnL and brackets on the chart to ticks or points to help not trading PnL. To have consistency in trading it's better to have consistent point / tick level targets, regardless of how many contracts are being used. Seeing the dollar amount becomes confusing, as you could be cutting trades early or not taking profit early enough, as the value differs depending on number of contracts, where as ticks / points is consistent. People might think you can read it on the chart, but the chart scale isn't even in ticks, it's in decimal, so this makes it even harder.

totally concur that tick option is necessary especially when scaling up.

This is essential in risk management!! Make brackets expressed in points as well - not only in currency
