I noticed that the target profit orders generated by Alera are incorrect.  I have a 2% profit target stipulated in the Alera position management section of my strategy.  However, the calculations are incorrect.  In some cases the calculations are approximately correct, but in most cases the calculations are very off and can range anywhere from 0.32% to 4.48% on my sample list.  I am not able to post the screenshots here, but wherever I look in Strategy Log or Portfolio tab the numbers are incorrect.  Thanks.

Sorry to hear that. If you can send a screenshot of your strategy settings, the portfolio tab, and the log file to contact@aleratrading.com, then I take a better look at the issue.
