Trading Report

The report represents trading results in a convenient visual format. It assists in evaluating trading performance, optimizing portfolios and finding methods to achieve lower risks along with improved trading stability. To analyze your strategy, go to the history section and click on the period selection icon. Next, select the period and click "Create a trade report".

Trading Report

The report is divided into tabs, each providing aggregated information:

  • Summary – an overview of trading over time: overall profit and loss metrics, deposit and withdrawal amounts, balance, growth and dividends graphs, and other trading results.
  • Profit/Lost – data on profitable and losing trades. The parameter is divided by types of trading (manual, algorithmic and copying trades). The results can be analyzed in terms of trades or money by months and years.
  • Long/Short – dynamic ratio of buy and sell operations at specified periods of time, as well as Buy and Sell profitability.
  • Symbols – analysis of trades by financial instruments. You will see here which symbols you earn or lose on, how often you trade them, graphs of trades and monetary volumes for them.
  • Risks – key risk characteristics of your strategy: drawdown and deposit load graphs, and the ratio of profitable and losing trades.

  • The report is generated based on the trading history of the current account. To analyze trading activity on a different account, switch to that account first, then reopen the report.
  • To calculate certain metrics, the platform uses historical price data for financial instruments. For example, to display equity, deposit load, and drawdown graphs, it calculates how floating profit across positions has changed over time. Consequently, the first time you open the report, the platform may require some time to download prices and perform calculations. Next time the report will open instantly.
  • The price data used for generating the report may consume a significant amount of your device's memory. If you encounter memory limitations, try generating the report for a shorter time period.
