1) Everyone calculates PnL differently.
FTX's PnL page is one interpretation, but there are many more. Many people use a different interpretation, and that's fine.
The PnL page doesn't matter, your balances and positions do.
the disclaimers we have:

2) FTX's calculated PnL can vary based on a number of factors, and please do not use it unless it's helpful to you!
At some point we'll probably do a revamp of the page.
I think tradingview can do a better job at the graphing tools... also FTX mobile, that's gotta get revamped right...

The PnL functionality in FTX is broken. Days don't load properly, some days merge into others, the chart lags and generally the data is useless. What is most important to traders? Data and clout. Neither is afforded by the PnL page in its current state.
I find that tab very useful Sam. TY!
It forced me to record unrealized daily loss as a loss on my excel record which affected PF. But I also reap the benefit of unrealized daily profit (balanced)
Could you please share the formula which FTX uses for calculating daily P&L?
