The Positions component provides a snapshot of your open positions under the account selected. It shows important details for each open position and allows you to manage them throughout the trading day.

The Positions component includes the following information:

  • Time - The time at which the position was entered.

  • Symbol - The symbol / contract name.

  • Position - The volume of the contract that was purchased by the account. Newly purchased contracts will increment this value.

  • Entry Price - The average price of contracts purchased.

  • Risk - Also known as the Stop Loss (SL) value. Once your position reaches the Risk value, your position will close.

  • To Make - Also known as the Take Profit (TP) value. Once your position reaches the To Make value, your position will close.

  • P&L - Profit or loss accrued by the user if the position is closed at the current market price. A green value indicates a profit. A red value indicates a loss.

  • Close - This button allows the user to close the position at the current market price.
