Details

The Summary window provides summarized information about open positions for each traded symbol.

The Summary window sorts all open positions by symbol. When you have multiple positions open for the same symbol, the Summary window automatically compounds these individual trades. This allows multiple tickets of the same symbol to be grouped together to display information regarding average open price and net P/L.

If you have multiple accounts, in this window you can choose to see open positions of one or all your accounts.

• Symbol provides the symbol of the positions.
• Usd Mr provides the amount of the account equity currently allocated to maintain your open positions. You can think of Usd Mr as of the trader's collateral for the open positions of the symbol. The account must maintain at least this amount for the open positions to remain open.
