A trade is in the wrong month or period in Performance

You see: a trade sits in another month or period than expected, or months shift by a day around midnight.

Why: Performance dates a trade by the time of its last fill, and days follow Settings → General → Time zone.

What to do:

  • Change the time zone setting to match how you count a trading day.
  • For fills you typed, imported from ONE or pasted from thinkorswim, edit the closing action’s Time in the Journal to move the trade.
  • A fill that came from IB keeps the execution time IB reported, so editing the action’s time does not move that trade in Performance.
