Step 1: Open History
Open the History tab. Positions lists your closed trades; choose the period and, if you like, one symbol. History refreshes by itself when a trade opens, closes, fills or is cancelled.
Step 2: Switch to Summary
On the Positions tab, switch from Table to Summary. Overview gives the number of trades, your real growth, the max drawdown and the expected profit per trade. Real growth counts trading only, so money you added never counts as growth.
Step 3: See deposits and withdrawals in the list
In Table, deposits, withdrawals and credit sit between your trades by date, each with its badge and its amount in the Profit column. Press the Deposit or Withdrawal total in the summary line to show only those rows; press it again to show everything. They are in Export CSV too.
Step 4: Choose your columns
Open Columns and tick what you want to see. For closed positions you can add, for example, the ticket number, the open time, how long you held, SL, TP, the close reason, commission, swap, margin and your comment. Show deposits & withdrawals is there too.
