PnL Calendar Overview
Monthly, yearly, and heatmap views of your daily profit and loss with color coding
The PnL Calendar provides a monthly view of your trading activity, showing profit or loss for each day with intuitive color coding. It is one of the fastest ways to spot patterns in your trading -- profitable days, losing streaks, and the overall rhythm of your trading week.
Understanding the Calendar
Each day on the calendar shows the net PnL amount for that day. Days are color-coded based on the outcome:
- Green -- Profitable day (net positive PnL).
- Red -- Losing day (net negative PnL).
- Break-even day (exactly $0 PnL) -- keeps the neutral, uncolored background but still shows the 0 amount and trade count.
- No color -- No trades were taken on that day.
Calendar Features
- Navigate between months using the arrow buttons.
- Click on any day to see that day's PnL broken down by symbol, plus any transactions and a shortcut to add a note.
- Weekly totals are shown at the end of each row.
- Monthly totals appear in the calendar header.
- Days show a single green or red shade regardless of amount -- for intensity that scales with the PnL, use the Heatmap view tab.
- View tabs switch between Monthly, Yearly (a 12-month grid with per-month PnL, trades, and win rate), and Heatmap (a year heatmap plus an all-time Day x Hour grid).
- A weekend show/hide toggle and a PNG export button sit in the header.
- Transaction badges (D, W, P) appear on days with deposits, withdrawals, or payouts.
The calendar is excellent for identifying day-of-week patterns. If you notice that Fridays are consistently red, that might indicate you should avoid trading on Fridays or reduce your position size.
The calendar follows your account selection -- one account, several, or all accounts combined. With multiple accounts selected, daily, weekly, and monthly PnL is aggregated across the selection (with a mixed-currency warning if the currencies differ).
