I'm seeing some very odd behaviour while doing a backtest. There is a large disconnect between my Balance and Equity values. There was a trade to buy 35.1 lots of EURUSD at 1.37321 and the trade later exited at 1.37412, for a profit of 9.1 pips * 35.1 lots * $10/lot/pip = $3194.1 which shows up correctly in the results table and the balance curve on the chart, but then the equity curve shows a gain of about 12,000 instead of what it should be.
See screenshots below. Does anyone know what is happening here?
