#PNLTracker Tracking the PNL (Profit and Loss) of your investments on an exchange is important for understanding how well your investments are doing. Here’s how you can usually keep an eye on your PNL:
1. Use the Exchange's Portfolio or Holdings Section:
- Real-time Valuation: Most exchanges have a specific section called "Portfolio," "Holdings," or "Assets."
- Purchase History: You can view your transaction history, which includes details like the date, price, and amount of each transaction.
- Current Market Price: The platform displays the latest market price for each asset you own.
- PNL Calculation and Total Portfolio Value:
How to use it:
- Check this section regularly to see how your investments are performing.
- Look for the PNL columns related to each asset.
2. Review Your Transaction History:
- Detailed Records: Your transaction history will list all your deposits, withdrawals, trades, and sometimes even fees.
- Export Options: Most reliable exchanges let you download your transaction history as a CSV or Excel file.
- Make sure to check your transaction history often to confirm its accuracy.
- Download your history for offline tracking and analysis.
3. Look for PNL Reports or Statements:
- Summary Views: Some exchanges provide more detailed PNL reports or statements.
- Realized PNL: These reports might include your realized PNL, showing the profit or loss from selling assets.
- See if your exchange offers these reports and use them to review your performance regularly.
4. Think About Using Third-Party Portfolio Trackers:
- Aggregation: These tools let you connect to different exchanges using API keys.
- Advanced Analytics: Third-party trackers often have better features for calculating PNL, reporting taxes, analyzing performance, and managing risks.
- Customization: They might provide options to customize how you track your costs and calculate PNL (like FIFO or LIFO methods).
