Floating loss "transferred" to swap on WTI Oil

[Talar]

If you notice that your brokers data and the actual trade data are conflicting then do not be suprised. That is how some brokers make sure that they earn money fromt the traders. Some of these live trading graphs are programmed to make traders lose in some trades for the broker to profit.

this is because you traded over the swap of contracts. when you bought oil at X price expecting it to rise the contracts expired and then were rebought at a different price for the next quarter this means the difference in contract price was passed over to those holding trades over the swap in contracts
