The trade page and its drawer

Click a card and the trade opens on the right. Its header shows the account, symbol and trade name, a size and DTE badge (“2× · 7 DTE”), up to two flags, the P&L headline with the session P&L beside it, and the actions: Close at with the mark price on an open trade, or Commit (with the size and structure) and Discard on a draft.

The trade page header of an open trade.

  2. 2 Size and DTE

Below the header sit the risk graph and the trade builder. The button above the graph, or ⌘J, switches to graph only.

To the right of the page are four tabs:

  • Chain: the option chain for this trade; a click on a bid or ask adds a leg to a scenario (Option chain).
  • Chart: the underlying’s price chart.
  • Record: the trade’s journal side: its plan (Plans and alerts), Desk conversations about this trade, a timeline of fills, adjustments and your notes, and a note box (⌘Enter saves).
  • Desk: the assistant, with this trade as context (What is Desk?). A dot on the tab means Desk is answering or has an answer you have not seen.
