Alltra Portfolio

The Tracker answers how your trading went. Portfolio answers what you are left with, which is a different question, and for a prop trader often a much less flattering one. Fees, resets and platform costs never appear in a P&L curve, and for many traders they are the difference between a good year and a flat one.

Scope

Your platform ledger

One balance across every account you have connected, with each firm’s share of it and how the whole thing has moved. If you run several evaluations at once, this is where they stop being separate mental arithmetic.

The platforms you deal with, prop firms, brokers, the rails your money arrives on, registered here by hand rather than synced. One row each, with what that platform has earned you, what it has cost you, the two netted off, return on what it cost, how many payouts it has made and how many entries you have logged against it. All of it derived from your own ledger, so a platform with nothing logged reads as dashes rather than zeroes.

This is not the same list as the trading accounts you connected in the Tracker, and it is not meant to be. Where a broker connection is about fills, a platform here is about a relationship and what it has cost. The Status column is dashed for everyone, nothing in Alltra records that you are funded at one firm and in evaluation at another, and guessing it from your payment history would be wrong for anyone who was paid out and then breached.

An account’s type and its starting balance are set where the account is created, the Trading accounts drawer in the navbar, not this page.

Where the money went, and it is the page to open before the ledger rather than after it. Three things stacked in the order the questions arrive: what the window came to, earnings against expenses with return and health beside them; then what that figure is made of, drawn as paths from each platform into what it turned into; then how it arrived, day by day.

It reads the same endpoints the Dashboard does, so a figure here and the same figure there cannot disagree. Transactions is the row-by-row version of this page, which is why the two sit together in the sidebar.

The ledger, and the section that does the real work. Every evaluation fee, reset, payout, platform cost and withdrawal, logged with what it was for. Add one from the Add Transaction drawer as it happens.

Log it when it happens

An evaluation fee entered today is worth ten reconstructed in six months, and a payout logged when it CLEARS rather than when it is approved is the only version that matches your bank. The gap between those two dates is real, and it is worth being able to see.

What you set against that ledger. A monthly ceiling on what you are willing to spend chasing funding, and a ceiling of your own on any single kind of spend underneath it, so you can see which one is running away rather than only that the total is. Both are set in the same drawer, reached from the Set budget button in the toolbar or from any category tile on the page, and you can add and remove categories of your own there.

The point of a budget is the breach, so set one you would actually stop at. A ceiling you would ignore does not produce one, and a number chosen to be comfortable tells you nothing when you cross it.

The same money by the day it landed. It is what stops a good month with three resets in it from reading as a good month, and it lines a payout up against the week of trading that earned it.

Why it is separate from the Tracker

Because they can disagree, and the disagreement is the useful part. A trader can have a green Tracker and a red Portfolio for months, the trading works and the cost of getting funded eats it, and no single combined figure would let you see that. Two surfaces, two questions, one set of accounts underneath.
