            var netProfit = 0.0;

            string chartpair = Symbol.Code;

            foreach (var position in Positions)
            {

                string pospair = position.SymbolCode;


                if (pospair == chartpair)

                    netProfit += position.NetProfit;
                    netPips += position.Pips;

                    var pps = string.Format("{0} p", netPips);

                    if (netProfit < 0)
                    {
                        //negative
                        netclr = Colors.Red;

                    }
                    if (netProfit == 0)
                    {
                        //neither positive or negative,
                        netclr = Colors.SlateGray;
                    }
                    var nets = pps + nett;
                    ChartObjects.DrawText("p1", "\t\t" + nets, StaticPosition.Right, netclr);


                    // ChartObjects.RemoveObject("p1");
                    //  int EntryPrice = position.EntryPrice;
                    //  double EntryTime = position.EntryTime;


                    // int y = Symbol.Ask;
                    // double x = Server.Time;


                    //ChartObjects.("tLine", EntryPrice, EntryTime, x, y, Colors.Gainsboro, 2, LineStyle.Lines)

                }




            }
            if (Positions.Count == 0)

Great indicator Dagfx! Is it possible to give the option to show Pips or $ profit as well as to adjust the placement on the chart? 

Thanks again!

A suggestion to make this even nicer -> take into consideration the current spread, so you can have the exact profit/loss value before closing the position. That would be very good for scalpers that have a thin margin.
