Strategy Trade Recap

Strategy Trade Recap is a trade-level seller's dashboard for one or more strategies: pick your strategies and a date range, and it lays out everything from today's activity down to the individual position that moved a number.

Open the report

Get there two ways:

• From the navigation, open the Tracking menu and find Trade Recap in the Strategies group.
• From the View Strategies page, click the Trade Recap button.

Trade Recap reads from the same trades table every broker order lands in, not a bot-only log, so anything carrying a Strategy Assignment shows up here once you select that strategy, whether a bot opened it or you assigned it by hand.

Build your selection

The filter card at the top drives the whole report, the same pattern as Strategy Performance:

• Select Strategy: required. Pick one strategy, several, or All Enabled. Enabled and disabled strategies list in separate groups, so you can still recap something you retired.
• Select Symbol: fills in once you've chosen strategies, narrowed to the symbols those strategies have actually traded. Leave it on All to include every symbol.
• Select Opening Dates: a date range limiting the report to trades opened in that window. Defaults to the last 30 days, ending today. For accounts with a large trade history, shorter windows keep the recap quick to build.
• By Account: optional, restricts the report to specific linked accounts.

Click Run Recap and every section below builds from that selection.

Finding your way around

Once a recap has run, a Report Index appears. On large screens it's a sticky rail to the left of the report, listing every section that actually rendered for your selection; click any entry to jump straight there. On smaller screens the same index lives behind a floating Jump to report section button that opens it as a slide-out panel.

On wide screens, related sections sit side by side in pairs: the Scorecard beside Highlights, Win / Loss Analytics beside Days in Trade, DTE Quality beside its per-contract twin, and so on. On narrower screens everything stacks in the same order.

Today's Seller Dashboard

The first section is the operational snapshot, as of the current moment in Eastern time: gross premium opened today, Realized Profits today, fees on trades closed today, gross premium currently open, positions expiring today, and assignments today. A small table compares today's gross premium opened and Realized Profits against your average active day in the selected range, so you can tell a slow day from a normal one. If any open position sits past its expiration date, a warning callout flags it for reconciliation.

Scorecard

Headline numbers for every realized trade in the selected range: Realized Profits, win rate, expectancy per trade, closed trade count, gross premium opened, premium capture rate, fees paid, and average DTE entered.

Highlights

Paired beside the Scorecard, Highlights turns the range into a story. It opens with a one-line summary of what you kept: your capture rate across the closed trades, and how many of them you won. Below that, Best trade and Worst trade spotlight cards each show the symbol and P/L, the strategy and account, the open-to-close dates with days held, gross premium opened and capture, and an order-number link that opens the Trade Log to that trade.

A row of tiles rounds out the standouts: Best day and Worst day (by the day trades closed, matching Actual Capture by Close Date), your Current streak of wins or losses, and Expired worthless with its share of closed trades and the premium retained.

Opening Activity

A combo chart plots daily gross premium opened as bars against a cumulative line, so you can see both the day-to-day rhythm of opening trades and the running total. Below it, a Gross premium opened by day & symbol matrix runs dates down the rows and symbols across, with per-symbol and per-day totals. Under that is the Credit / debit by symbol drill-down tree, one of the report's expandable trees explained below.

Actual Capture by Close Date

Where the Scorecard and equity curve plot P/L against entry date, this section re-buckets the same realized trades by the day each position actually closed. A Timeline / Calendar toggle switches the view: Timeline is the daily bar chart with a cumulative line, and Calendar is a year-grid heatmap that shades every trading day by that day's realized P/L, one calendar row per year in range. If some close dates couldn't be resolved, the section subtitle notes how many.

Realized Profits

The equity curve for the selection: cumulative Realized Profits by entry date, with an underwater drawdown line sharing the same chart, and a max-drawdown figure (dollars and percent) called out above it. This view is plotted on entry date; for the close-date view, use Actual Capture by Close Date above it.

Realized Premium Capture Waterfall

A waterfall chart bridges short premium opened down to net realized profit through the give-backs along the way (long premium opened, buy-to-close cost, fees), with the overall capture rate in the subtitle. Below the chart is the Realized Premium Capture Waterfall drill-down tree, so you can trace any stage back to the symbols and positions behind it.

Win / Loss Analytics

Average capture per trade, your biggest single win and loss, and your longest winning and losing streaks, plus a histogram of the realized P/L distribution across every closed trade in range.

Days in Trade

How long your closed trades actually lasted, and what the holding time paid. A one-line summary states your average days in a trade and the capture that came with it. A chart plots average capture bars with a win-rate line across holding-time bands, and a table buckets every resolved trade into Same day, 1-3, 4-7, 8-14, 15-30, and 31+ days, each with its trades, gross premium opened, P/L, win rate, and average capture. If some close dates couldn't be resolved, the subtitle notes how many.

DTE Quality

Win rate and premium capture bucketed by days-to-expiration at entry, so you can see whether the DTE you typically enter at is actually the one performing best. For each bucket the chart draws two bars in the same slot: a hatched Gross premium opened bar behind a solid Collected P/L bar. Both rise from zero to their own total, so the solid bar covers the premium bar up to whatever you kept, and the hatched remainder showing at the top is the premium that got away. A Capture % line runs across the same buckets on a right-hand axis, and a table beneath lists trade count, gross premium opened, P/L, win rate, capture, and average P/L per bucket.

Gross Premium Opened per Contract by DTE

The entry-side twin of DTE Quality: instead of asking what each DTE bucket paid, it asks what each one collected going in. A searchable, sortable, paginated table breaks gross premium opened out by symbol and DTE-at-entry bucket, with trade count, contract count, the bucket's gross premium opened, and the average gross opened per contract. When many symbols are in scope, the top symbols by trade count list individually and the rest fold into an Other symbols row per bucket, noted in the subtitle.

Cost and Capital Efficiency

Commission, regulatory fees, and exchange fees, plus average fee per trade and fees as a percent of gross opened. Return on capital compares the period's P/L against account net liquidating value when balance data is available; where it isn't, the sub-label says so instead of guessing. A chart plots P/L by the same DTE-at-entry buckets used in DTE Quality, with a table adding trade count and win rate per bucket.

Fee Drag

Total fees, fees as a percent of gross opened, fees as a percent of P/L, and average fee per trade, with a breakdown table by strategy. When your selection spans more than one symbol, the section adds a By Symbol table and calls out the highest-fee-drag symbols, flagging any symbol where fees run 10% or more of its gross opened. If your broker is still syncing fee data for some orders, a callout notes how many orders are pending; the totals rise on their own once the fees finish syncing.

Gross Premium Open Pipeline

The current open book: a bar chart of gross premium currently open by expiration week, and the Gross Premium Open Pipeline drill-down tree beneath it, which leads with expiration rather than symbol so you can see what's coming due first. The tree's columns show gross opened plus the long and short open quantities at every level. If any open positions couldn't be reconciled to an expiration, a warning callout says how many.

Expiration Runway

A forward view of gross premium currently open grouped into expiration buckets, with a stacked bar chart of premium by expiration and symbol, and a table listing every expiration, its DTE, and premium by symbol. If one symbol accounts for 40% or more of your gross premium currently open, a warning callout flags the concentration.

Strategy Scoreboard

Only appears when your selection resolves to more than one strategy. A sortable table compares trade count, Realized Profits, win rate, capture, average DTE, gross opened, and fees strategy by strategy, and a grouped bar chart above it puts each strategy's gross premium opened next to its Realized Profits, so you can see which one is actually carrying the group.

Symbol Concentration

Two tiles lead the section: your largest symbol, and what your top 3 symbols make up as a share of gross premium opened. A donut chart beside the heatmap slices total gross premium opened by symbol, largest share first. The heatmap toggles between Gross opened (symbol by opening date, an activity view) and Gross currently open (symbol by expiration, the current book); the tiles and donut always reflect gross premium opened regardless of the toggle.

Gross Premium Opened by Day of Week

Which weekdays you actually collect on. A bar chart buckets gross premium opened by the weekday each trade was entered, with a toggle between Total gross opened and Avg per trade. Weekdays with only a handful of opens in the range draw dimmed and hatched, with a note underneath, so one lucky Tuesday never reads as a settled pattern.

Assignment Risk

Every still-open short contract, ranked by how close it sits to the money. Each row shows the underlying with its last quote, the contract and strike, DTE remaining, quantity, and how far out of the money it is, sorted nearest-the-money first. Contracts within 5% of the money highlight as warnings, and anything already in the money flags in red. The table is sortable and paginated, so a large open book stays workable.

Realized Outcomes

Every realized trade sorted into how it actually ended: Assigned, Expired / retained (with gross opened retained called out separately), Closed for profit, or Closed for loss, each with its own P/L. Below the tiles is the Realized Outcomes drill-down tree, with an Outcome column on the leaf rows.

Working the drill-down trees

Four sections above ship with an expandable tree: Credit / debit by symbol (Opening Activity), Realized Premium Capture Waterfall, Gross Premium Open Pipeline, and Realized Outcomes. All four work the same way. Click any row with a + to lazy-load its children; click it again (now showing −) to collapse. Most trees drill symbol → expiration → put/call → strike → position; Gross Premium Open Pipeline leads with expiration before symbol, matching the chart above it. Every parent row rolls up everything beneath it, all the way down.

The bottom of each branch is a position leaf: it shows the strategy name, an order-number link that opens the Trade Log to that exact order in a new tab, and the account and open date and Eastern entry time in muted text alongside it. That link is the fastest way to go from a number in Trade Recap to the actual fills behind it.
