Trading Information
The trading center is a logical grouping of all the tabs that are relevant to trading. This grouping can be defined and customized according to your preferences and does not need to look exactly like the example below:

Tab | Meaning |
Order manager | Contains all currently active or already executed orders. |
Trades | contains the individual trading decisions made in various time frames. Positions may be displayed differently if opposite positions are existent. In the above example, Positions tab and Trades tab contain the same information because there are no counter positions. |
Part-Trades | Separates trade fragments, e.g. from entry to target 1. |
Executions | Displays the order executions (as well as partial executions). |
Account | Shows detailed account information associated with the currently connected broker. |
The time range filter
(within the Order manager/Positions manager/Trades manager/Part trades manager/Executions tabs)
With the help of this filter you can display the corresponding entries for a specified time interval. You also may choose user account. Currently running positions (open positions/trades/...) will always be displayed regardless of your filter settings.
