The Details Tab
The Details tab, is designed to provide you with comprehensive insights into your positions. Access essential information such as position ID, open and close triggers, leverage, quantity, and average open price, all in one convenient location.
You may wonder, why do we charge transaction fees and commissions? We do not! They all come from the exchange API data feed and in the Backtester you set yourself what transaction costs you want to include in your simulated trading performance.
Exchanges often tend to avoid associating fees with the position, leaving you unaware of what’s eating into your profits and by how much. This is where cleo.finance comes in by providing an advanced view on all associated transaction costs with every position. Let’s delve deeper into the process of tracking the transaction costs with cleo.finance:
The Realized PnL Breakdown section lets you easily explore gross PnL, open and close commissions, funding fees, and the Net PnL. It is a comprehensive breakdown designed to give you a clear picture of your financial performance. The commission and funding fees data are collected every 8 hours only when the position is opened and closed. So when you see a figure like (30*0.02), it means the position was held for a total of 240 hours (30 times * 8 hours). This level of transparency allows you to understand the impact of these factors on your overall results.
Slippage occurs when there’s a variance between the expected trade price and the actual executed price. The slippage breakdown section reveals key details about the slippage in your positions. This includes your expected price, average execution price, and the slippage itself (Expected Price – Incurred Slippage). Please note that this section focuses solely on slippage and does not include spreads and commissions.
By leveraging this tool, you can take your trading to a whole new level. Access all the data and insights you need to analyze and optimize your trading strategies, understand how fees impact your profits and losses, and discover the best ways to trade smarter and faster.
