How an emotion log is recorded and read back
An emotion log in Alltra Tracker is attached to one trade, not to a day, and draws on a fixed roster of sixteen states whose polarity is judged for trading: Discipline, Patience and Trust in plan are among the eight positive, and Fear, Greed and Hope among the eight negative. Hope is classed negative because hoping is what a trader does instead of cutting a loser. Because a log is not a trade, it never moves a figure on the Performance board.
The Emotional Metrics chart in Alltra Tracker plots positive against negative intensity, one point per day, and a day with nothing negative logged is left out of the negative line rather than drawn at zero. The breakdown table below it on the Emotions page credits each emotion with the whole result of every trade it was logged on, so its rows do not add up to your net P&L, as the worked example in the Emotions tracker guide shows.
How a CSV import becomes trades
A CSV import in Alltra Tracker brings trades in from a file your broker exports, into an account that has never been linked to a broker, such as a Custom account; an account that has ever synced refuses one, because its trades are rebuilt from the broker’s own fills. Each row becomes one or more executions and trades are derived from them afterwards, so a file overlapping an earlier import is safe to send.
Column mapping on an Alltra CSV import is detected for you and stays editable, so you can correct anything read wrong before you commit. Alltra accepts both shapes brokers export — one row per fill or one row per completed trade — though fills carry the most detail. As the Importing your history guide advises, export the widest date range, then check a week you remember.
When to create a custom account
A Custom account in Alltra is made from the Custom card in the Manual entry section of Link Account, for a platform Alltra does not integrate with yet or for something that is not a brokerage account. It has no sync and no sign-in: you name it and set its type (Live, Demo, Evaluation or Funded), asset class and starting balance. Because it has never been linked to a broker, a Custom account takes both hand-entered trades and CSV imports, and the Connecting an account guide walks through what creating one asks for.
