I am looking to access the realized profit/loss during the day. When backtesting, how do we get the realized profit at any instant for that day alone? thanks.

Hi Ags,
To calculate the daily realized profit/loss, we can add some properties in Initialize
self.yesterday_total_profit = 0
self.yesterday_total_fees = 0To calculated the daily realized profit and loss intraday, we can call
def get_daily_realized_pnl(self):
daily_gross_profit = self.Portfolio.TotalProfit - self.yesterday_total_profit
daily_fees = self.Portfolio.TotalFees - self.yesterday_total_fees
return daily_gross_profit - daily_feesWe just need to ensure we update the `yesterday` values at the end of each day
def OnEndOfDay(self):
self.yesterday_total_profit = self.Portfolio.TotalProfit
self.yesterday_total_fees = self.Portfolio.TotalFeesSee the attached backtest for reference.
Best,
Derek Melchin
