Option positions ibkr calculations not consistent

General Question

Did anyone else notice that while in your positions they use mid-price which is overtly optimistic, in the strategy builder they use bid-ask which is too pessimistic (especially for small orders).

It would be nice if the builder would adjust to your order.

Also, how do y'all track realistic prices of option strategies?
