Open Profit/Loss Qty
Indicates the current number of contracts in open trades.

Represents the total number of contracts after trades have been closed. This is the sum of "Fill Buy Qty" and "Fill Sell Qty." Please note that each buy contract corresponds with a sell contract upon order closure.

The total number of buy contracts. If the total differs from the "Fill Sell Qty," you have an open buy order. Each buy contract will be matched with a sell contract when the order closes.

Fill Sell Qty
The total number of sell contracts. If the total differs from the "Fill Buy Qty," you have an open sell order. Each sell contract will be matched with a buy contract when the order closes.

This formula illustrates the relationship between your Auto Liquidate Peak Balance and the Auto Liquidate Threshold.

Min Account Balance
This is your starting Auto Liquidate Threshold Value, applicable if your account balance is new or has not increased, with no realized or unrealized profits.

Auto Liquidate Max Min Account Balance
Relevant only for Evaluation Accounts, this value indicates your account balance target based on account size. Your account balance must reach this figure to successfully pass the evaluation stage.
