The Activity section (represented by the Heartbeat icon) provides a comprehensive log of every completed trade and submitted order sent to your brokerage account. This section is divided into two primary data sets: Trades and Orders, ensuring full transparency into how your Strategy is being executed.
Trades vs. Orders: What is the Difference?
To help you track your account accurately, it is important to distinguish between these two views:
Trades: This view only includes data from filled orders. It reflects actual transactions that have been completed.
Orders: This view includes all orders tied to your account, whether they are filled, open, or cancelled.
