Hi guys , is there any feature on Jforex available that enables you to display % P&L in the orders window?

Thanks in advance

I am desperately waiting for this, it is ridiculous that it is not possible to see how much money is at risk on the trade before taking it. This belongs into the very first Version of each trading platform, How can you trade without knowing the potential loss?

Are you referring to Positions Tab at the bottom to have a column to show % Risk & Reward based on the SL & TP values?
OR
Are you referring to New Order Dialog to show the possible % Risk & Reward based on the SL & TP values BEFORE YOU ENTER A TRADE ?

I need to know how much money i will lose BEFORE i make the trade, so yes, the new order dialog.

It should simply work like this:

NEW BUY ORDER_______

SL Price or Pips: 1.2098 (30 pips)
TP Price or Pips: 1.2158 (60 pips)

Risk in $ or %: 500$ (2%)

Easy, why is this not part of every trading software?? Every Trader needs to know exactly how much money is at risk, pretty much the most important thing when opening a trade.
