What is Account P&L?
Account P&L shows your overall profit or loss by tracking changes in your total balance, excluding net inflow. You can choose to display your P&L in US dollars or as a percentage of your wallet’s starting balance.
When should I use Account P&L?
Account P&L gives you a single, clear overview of your portfolio’s standing, and you can use it to evaluate your trading strategy and make better capital allocation decisions.
How do I view my Account P&L?
From the home screen, go to Dashboard > P&L. The aggregated P&L of your Master and Sub-account(s) will be displayed.
Example:
Wallet Activity | Amount (USD) |
Starting Wallet Balance (Day T at 00:00 UTC) | $10,000 |
Deposits | +$3,000 |
Withdrawals | -$1,000 |
Ending Wallet Balance (Day T+1 at 00:00 UTC) | $15,500 |
The formula to derive Account P&L is:
Account P&L = Ending Wallet Balance - Starting Wallet Balance - Net Inflow
Net Inflow is the difference between total deposits and withdrawals.
For example:
Ending Wallet Balance is US$15,500
Starting Wallet Balance is $10,000
Net Inflow is $2,000
Your Account P&L would be $3,500, as calculated by:
Account P&L = $15,500 - $10,000 - $2,000 = $3,500
Additionally, the Account P&L (%) would be 35%, as calculated by:
Account PnL (%) = $3,500 ÷ $10,000 = 35%
What should I be aware of when using Account P&L?
Account P&L represents the change in the USD value of your assets, excluding net inflows.
