What each firm has cost you
The Accounts page — earnings, expenses, return on cost and payout cadence, one row per platform.
5 min read
Portfolio › Accounts is the per-relationship view. Where the Dashboard adds everything together, this page keeps the firms apart — which is the only way to answer the question that actually decides whether you buy another evaluation: which of these has paid for itself.
It reads your platforms and an aggregate over each one’s own ledger. It takes no date window and no account scope, because every figure on it is a total across the whole roster and narrowing one of them would quietly make it a total of part of it.
The roster’s nine columns
- Account, Status, Added — the platform, its standing, and when the relationship started — your own start date if you gave one, otherwise the day you registered it here. The row is about the relationship rather than about our record of it.
- Earnings, Expenses, Net — what it has paid you, what it has cost you, and the difference. Net needs both halves — where one is unknown the cell dashes rather than treating the missing side as zero.
- ROI, Payouts, Logs — return on what it cost, how many payouts it has sent, and how many entries its ledger holds. Logs is what a hand-kept portfolio has instead of a journal.
ROI is the same cost-recovery ratio the Dashboard states, computed per firm: earnings less expenses over expenses. A firm that has paid out five thousand dollars and cost you nothing shows a dash rather than a number, because a return on nothing is undefined rather than infinite.
Expenses here counts every fee on every row, including the wire fee on a payout, because the question is what this relationship has cost you in total. The Budget page’s Spent deliberately excludes those — a budget governs money you choose to spend, and the cost of receiving a payout is not something a ceiling can control.
Performance Over Time
One line per platform, showing where each relationship stands as the year goes on. It draws the real ledger and nothing else: a step that moves only on the days money actually moved, so a flat stretch is a genuine flat stretch rather than a smoothed curve through it. A platform with nothing logged against it gets no line at all rather than a line along zero, which would be a drawn claim that the year was flat.
The chart shows your top five by earnings, with the rest reachable from the firm dropdown, over a range of the whole year, six months, three months or one. Its headline is money — the earnings the drawn lines cover — and it says how many accounts that is: with more firms than the chart draws it reads “across 5 of 8 accounts this year” rather than letting a total of five stand for all of them. With no earnings to plot it prints a dash instead of a zero.
Account Insight
A ring showing each platform’s share of your EARNINGS, not of your payouts. The difference matters: an account still in evaluation can earn without ever paying out, and counting only payouts would make it look like it had produced nothing. Every row in the list beneath filters the chart to that firm.
The four tiles, and what two of them cannot say yet
The page opens with Funded accounts, Cost per pass, Avg payout size and Payout frequency. Payout size and frequency are real: both are derived from the amounts and dates of the payouts you have logged. Frequency is the mean gap between one payout and the next, per firm, so it needs two before it can say anything and dashes until then. Note that it counts payouts and not payout days — log two on one date and that pair contributes a zero-day gap, which pulls the average down. The money calendar’s own cadence tile measures between distinct days instead, so the two can differ.
Funded accounts and Cost per pass cannot be computed. A platform has a type, not a prop-firm standing, and evaluation attempts and passes are not recorded anywhere in Alltra — so the count reads zero, the cost dashes, and the Status column dashes with them. That is the honest rendering of a fact nothing has been told, rather than a number nobody could stand behind.
The small comparison line under each tile is sample text and is not computed from your records yet. Read the values, not the deltas.
What does not do anything yet
- Compare accounts, and the View details, Edit and Remove items in a row’s menu
- The row itself, which does not open anything on click
- The footer’s pager — the roster is read as a single page, so everything you have registered is already on screen
Removing a platform, and ticking or unticking its Included box, is done from the accounts drawer in the navbar — the same place you registered it. Renaming one, or changing the type you filed it under, has no control anywhere yet.
