How do we get the back tester to reflect the profit for futures?
For example, ESH25 is $50 per point and MESH25 is $5 per point.
The simulator shows $1 per point.

If you provider (which one is it?) doesn't already assign the Point Value, then you need to create a record for it in Tools > Markets & Symbols.
I forgot!
It's just as important to enable Preferences > Backtest Settings > Futures Mode .
You can leave this always enabled, even for stocks. It would only make a difference if you have stock symbol that matches a futures or option symbol, in which case it would be considered a futures contract in Futures Mode.
