Soumen,
On your first order to buy 150 @ 1400 limit, you get credit for that fill, and your desire was to buy the maximum possible, which you weren't aware of at the time. 20 was your max at the time, so I will credit you as being filled 20 @ 1400.
You also had a daytrade, where you bought 20 @ market in this post: Message 11935437, and this sold 20 in the post this one is in reply to. Your fill on the buy 20 was 1402.50, and your fill on the sell 20 was 1400.25. So on that trade, you lost 45 points, and commission and slippage equals 1/2 pt. per round turn, or in this case, 10 pts. So the net loss on the daytrade was 55 points, or $13,750.
So you were carrying the 20 contracts bought @ 1400 into the 11/16 close, you could only hold 10 long (overnight margin requirement = $25,000/contract, and you start with $250,000). So I will consider 10 contracts closed MOC on Tuesday the 16th. That closing price was 1431.25, so you made 31.25 X 10 = 312.50 points less 5 points for com/slip, or 307.50 on that trade, which equals $76,875, minus the $500 penalty for being over margin on the close... So net $76,375. You're still long 10 from 1400.
Good luck and let me know if you have any more questions.
Here's your revised summary from 11/17's close:
Soumen Barua PT 360,187.47 30 10 0 1400
