About

The Futures Account Matrix displays all your future accounts and their associated figures (eg P/L, expenses/income items) to allow you to easily check and balance the figures against your daily statements, categorised according to Account and Currency by default. To categorise the trades according to your needs, you can reorganise your data by dragging-and-dropping the columns at the top of the table to 'set row groups'. Columns like Amount will be summed up accordingly.

CUM. P/L: Cumulative/Total P/L

EXP/INC: Expense/Income item input in General Ledger

FUND IN/OUT: Fund in/out item input in General Ledger

In Group Dashboard, only group members can access the shared models/reports.
