Profit and Loss statistics can be manipulated as attributes, and accessed from a query.

Each term can be modified to specify some subset of answers upon which to calculate
the statistics.  The modifiers use the following form, ( which is more easily understood
by looking at the menus ).

TERM [  [ only ( Open | Close ) | ( Short | Long ) ]  | <symbol> | from <order block> ]

    for example:  

• num_trades only Open - will return the number of open trades.
• num_trades only Short - will return the number of short trades made.
• num_trades of IBM - will return the number of trades of IBM.
• num_trades from 1.1:  - will return trades from order block 1.1.

At the bottom of this document, is a query which "shows" these variables.  
Note that the group of terms Average Period Statistics, which includes:

• avg_ret_period
• compound_ret_period
• pct_periods_new_high
• stddev_of_period_returns
• sharpe_ratio
• zstat 
• standard_error
• std_error_ratio
• geom_error_ratio

All require time period modifiers to equal the default output of the P & L Statistics Report
