Date issue
Subject: Date Format Issue with ThinkorSwim Data Import
Hi,
I'm experiencing a date format issue when uploading data exported from ThinkorSwim into MyPnL.
My spreadsheet correctly shows today's date as 04/08/2026 (MM/DD/YYYY), however MyPnL is interpreting this as 4th August rather than 8th April, suggesting it is reading the date in DD/MM/YYYY format instead.
This appears to affect dates from the 1st through to the 12th of each month — any date where the day value could also be read as a valid month number — and as a result I am having to manually correct the dates on all affected positions after every import, which is time-consuming.
Could you please advise whether there is a date format setting within MyPnL that I can adjust, or whether this is something that can be resolved on your end?
Many thanks

I had to use ChatGPT to make a excel template to convert the format to fit in with MyPnL. The MyPnL import feature for thinkorswim dosen’t and hasn’t ever worked!
