How to get the most out of TradeTracker

Two quick setup steps and you're set.

1

Enter starting capital for each account

For every account you create, add a Start Capital (or use the first cash event). This is the amount you're trading with in that account. Goals and pacing depend on it—so the app can show you whether you're on track for your daily, weekly, and monthly gain targets.


note: optional, but recommended for accurate goal tracking

2

Set your daily, weekly, and monthly goal gain %

In Manage Portfolios → goals, specify the gain percentages you're aiming for (e.g. 0.5% daily, 2% weekly, 8% monthly). TradeTracker then auto-calculates your goal amounts for future weeks based on your capital and those percentages. You'll see how you're pacing against those targets on your dashboard and charts.

Example: Daily & Total Gains

Here's what a 9‑month account can look like—with real ups and downs but ~31% total gain over the period. Bars are weekly gains (green = up, red = down); the solid line is your cumulative total gain; the dotted blue line is a 0.5% per week goal projection.
