3. Select a parent portfolio (if you want the newly-created portfolio to be a child of an existing portfolio), if any. Otherwise, leave it empty. Click 'Next' to proceed.

4. Select the trade(s) to be included in the newly-created portfolio. The list includes trades that are already recorded in your account. If you want to include trades that are not found in this list, you may first input your trades under 'Paper Trade' from the navigation sidebar on the left. Otherwise, you may choose to directly create new trade(s) and allocate them to the portfolio automatically, or insert the trades later. You may also create an empty portfolio, and capture trades into it later on.


Please note that you may only select trades to be included in non-parent portfolio (sub-portfolio or standalone portfolio) only. You will not be able to add trades into a parent portfolio because a parent portfolio is used to compute the overall performance of its sub-portfolios and must be left empty (no trades added) for this purpose.
