Agents window statistics

Agent management takes virtual positions into account.

Agent management has its own statistics, and there is a possibility of error in it.

This is also related to orders for which no response was received from the broker and to the calculation algorithm described below. It is not yet clear how to do it right so that there are no errors. There were suggestions that this information should be removed altogether. Window needs to be reworked. At a minimum, all instruments within one agent are not taken into account and are not shown.

Now in the management of agents, the statistics are calculated as follows: The script splits all transactions into pairs, if there is no pair, then the transactions are discarded.

For example, you have 2 lots (long), but if you look in the "Trades" table in the agent, then there is no such deal (deals). The script doesn't actually lead the position.

In the agent management, a generalized position on the script is shown. For example, pressing the "Forget errors" button, skipping entry, exit, auto-open / close all these events and settings can remove a trade without a pair from the statistics. Statistics in agent management do not affect the operation of the agent, no special actions are required. You cannot clear the agent management statistics, you can only start the agent with a new trade name.

In fact, statistics in agent management cannot be trusted yet.
