Life Of Trade Icon/Color Codes
The Life of Trade Icon and Tab/Trade entry colors help you identify the status of your trades.
Icon Display and Color Coding
Note: Orders are automatically updated when you login to your trading account, whether Live, Virtual or Manual
Blue – Hollow Dots – No Connection
Active Order or Open Original Trade
Yellow – Hollow Dots – Open Connection
The Original Trade has been adjusted, but is still an Active Trade
Yellow – Solid Dots – Closed Connection
The Trade and any Adjustments have been closed, but one or more entries need to be Matched or Reconciled
Green – Solid Dots – Closed Connection
Closed trade – which includes any adjustments – resulting in a Profit
Red – Solid Dots – Closed Connection
Closed Trade – which includes any adjustments – resulting in a Loss
Trade Entry Lines
Note: Depending on the Theme used, the following colors will vary. The bar color denotes whether the trade needs action – such as Reconciliation or Matching to another trade.
Blue Line

No action needed on these entries. The colored left tab shows the status of each trade:
Blue: (Open Trade, hollow dots, no connection), Yellow: (Adjusted, hollow dots, partial connection), Red: Loss (Closed, solid dots, connected), Green: Profit (Closed, solid dots, connected)
Yellow Line

Action is needed on these trade entries. The Trade may have gone through Expiration and needs to be Reconciled. By clicking on the Trade Line, the Trade Tab will display:

Once the action is completed, the entry will update on all Journal tables including the Tags, P/L Graph & Insight tabs.
It is important to reconcile expired trades to properly display profit and provide updated analytical information on your trading success.
