Account Statement

The Account Statement interface provides you with a line-item description of how funds have moved within your account, including:

  • Cash & Sweep Vehicle
  • Futures Cash Balance and Forex Cash Balance
  • Order History
  • Trade History
  • Equities, Options, Futures, and Forex
  • Profits and Losses
  • Forex Account Summary
  • Account Summary

By default, all the data is shown for the last 24 hours. You can specify a custom date range, including a past period of time, in the dropdown next to your account number. Note: The Commissions YTD value is always displayed on a year-to-date basis, no matter what period you select.

You can view the data for a specified symbol only. To do so, use the symbol selector next to the date range selector. You can also link the account statement to a watchlist, so clicking through the watchlist automatically displays the symbols in the statement. To link the account statement to a symbol, click on the 'clip' icon  next to the symbol selector and make sure the watchlist and the account statement have the same color code.

In addition, you can customize and sort the columns in each section:

  • To customize the columns, right-click on a header and choose Customize. In the menu that appears, you can add or remove items by selecting them and clicking the appropriate action button (Add items or Remove items).
  • To re-order the current set of columns, select the item you would like to move in the Current Set pane, then click the Move Up or Move Down buttons. Once your columns are set, click OK to view your customized table.
  • To sort the table by a column, click on its header. An up arrow  will appear, indicating an ascending sort. Clicking again will give the column a descending sort (indicated by a down arrow ). To return to the unsorted state, click again.

Note that you can enable color-coordinated price ticks for some values in section headers, subtotals and totals, and columns (check the tables below for availability). To do so, navigate to Setup > Application Settings... > General > Display and activate the Account statement checkbox in the Show color price ticks area.

Price upticks will be shown in green and price downticks in red. When the price tick coloring is enabled, negative values are displayed with the minus sign; in the uncolored display, parentheses are used to show negative values.

Cash & Sweep Vehicle

The Cash & Sweep Vehicle section contains such information as the account balance at the start of the day, moves in and out of Money Market or Sweep vehicles, and line items summarizing all trades. In addition, you can determine the Fees & Commissions associated with each trade.

To see all the transactions, click on the V-shaped arrow  to the left of the Cash & Sweep Vehicle title. You can also filter the transactions you would like to see. To do so, click on the Transactions dropdown and choose from: Trades, Deposits, Withdrawals, Transfers, Dividends or Interest, and Start of day balances.
