PnL Charts

This panel contains charts of aggregated PnL plotted against time throughout the trading day. Additionally, the last price of the underlying is plotted. The standard view has PnL on the left axis and last price on the right axis. A quote chip in the upper portion of each chart shows the last price, size, change, and percent change.

Similar to Portfolio Metrics and Quotes panels, individual charts are grouped in a flow container. As the panel is resized, chart tiles wrap and reflow within the container, each maintaining uniform width and height. Tiles can be reordered and the grouping will be saved. When dragging a tile, white borders appear around surrounding tiles indicating where the selected tile will be inserted.
