profit loss for the day or profit loss since you got in the position i think.. use live support on think or swim theyre pretty good

I think it's a loss too, I tried the live chat but I'm not getting a response. Maybe that is because I'm only doing the paper trading right now.

I use the thinkorSwim platform and yes the P/L open is the profit or loss since you got int that position. P/L open is the profit or loss for the current day. Red means your down green means your up. If today is the first day you took a position in the stock then your P/L open, and P/L day will be the same. if you have any other questions about think or swim i would be glad to help out the best i can.

If think or swim was accurate (I've never used it) but mathematically P/L as you describe it is a ratio. you haven't indicated a color of the numbers and P/L are rarely in ratios because a number over one means you are winning and a number under 1 would mean you are losing.

I would recommend it to start for few reasons: 1: It's free. 2: If you get Robinhood Instant, you'll have immediate access to your money (first $1000). 3: with Instant, you'll have access to your money from previously sold stock whereas with all other brokers, you have to wait 3 days for it to settle. 4: It's up to the second. You won't miss a thing. I hope that helped :)

I heard its bad bc the executions are slow

Robin hood sucks horrible executions

@curran4877 just became a fully transparent trader today!
to much debt
You have to realize that sometimes all the news in the world can't drive a stock up and sometimes a stocks becomes full supernova without any news. $DRYS has been falling everyday now since the 17th of February. You can't expect it to just become supernova again. There a lot of factors at play but as of right now one of the most important ones is that the line of least resistance is down so the trend will continue down until it ceases to. I hope that makes sense.
Keep your head up :) We're all in this together! May god bless you with lots patience and ambition to study your butt off! :) Sometimes we all need a little push!
$DRYS has been diluting heavily. There are hundreds of millions of shares in the float. It is not a good long. Avoid unless you can short. IMO
