Hello,
Yes that's correct.
But as I understand this may create confusion I will change

problem
Okay, so if I understand you, parital exits are NOT
included in the the report statistics (Win%,Loss%, Win$, Loss$, etc) only
final exits that close the position ?
Therefore, for any system
which uses multiple exits, the report statistics will not accurately
reflect the behavoir of the system, but equity is correct though
?
