Split and Merge Trades in Tradervue

In Tradervue, a "trade" consists of a group of executions, and only trades have associated P&L. When you import trades, they often come as individual executions, such as multiple buy or sell transactions that occur over time or across different venues.

Tradervue's algorithm automatically groups these executions into logical trades, but you may sometimes need to adjust this grouping. Here’s how to split and merge trades to better align with your trading records.

Understanding Trade Grouping

Tradervue uses an algorithm to group executions into trades, typically starting a new trade when:

  • You change sides (e.g., from long to short).
  • A certain time limit has passed since the last trade closed.

While this automatic grouping usually aligns with how you view trades, there are scenarios where you may want to manually adjust the grouping.

Managing Existing Trades

For existing trades, you can either:

  • Use the Split function as described above.
  • Delete the trades and re-import them. You can delete multiple trades at once using the bulk editor.

By using the split and merge functions, you can ensure that your trades are accurately reflected in Tradervue, allowing for more precise performance tracking and analysis.
