What sits on the device and what sits on the account

Two different things end up on a machine after an install, and only one of them is a record. The first is presentation — templates, colour schemes, saved objects, the arrangement of windows and the indicator profiles you built. Those are files on that device, and they stay with that device unless you carry them yourself.

The second is the ledger of orders and deals. It is written against the account, not against the copy of the program that placed them, and a report simply asks the server for a slice of it. That is the practical reason a reinstall never costs anyone their closed-deal history and never restores a chart template.

The distinction matters when a number looks wrong. If the disagreement is about a written line — a ticket, a volume, a price, a charge — the software on the device has nothing to do with it, and reinstalling changes nothing at all.

Reading one closed-deal line end to end

A closed-deal line is not one number with decoration around it. The ticket identifies the record; the volume says how much of the position that particular line accounts for; the recorded prices say the levels the deal was written at; and the charges sit in their own fields rather than inside the profit figure.

Reading the profit column alone is the most common way to arrive at the wrong total. Commission is booked against the line, financing is carried on the line, and both are separate fields. A line reads correctly only once its own fields are added together.

The ticket is the anchor for everything else. Times repeat inside a session and prices repeat across a week, so grouping lines by ticket is what turns a list of rows back into the idea you actually had.

Why a remembered trade and a written trade disagree

A position closed in parts is written as several lines, each with its own volume and its own share of the cost. Nothing is duplicated and nothing is missing — one decision in your head simply became several records, and the group answers where a single row cannot.

The other frequent gap is between the level you watched and the level the deal was written at. A screen holds a quote for the moment you looked at it; a record holds the level the deal went through at. Comparing them as if they answered the same question produces a difference that is not an error.

Finally, balance and equity are different totals. Balance moves when a line is written and is therefore settled; equity still contains everything that is open. Checking a closed-deal report against equity mixes a finished record with an unfinished one.

Keeping a copy of the record before you rebuild a machine

An exported statement is a snapshot: it is fixed to the period you asked for and stops changing the moment it is written to disk. That is exactly what makes it useful later, when the live report has grown by hundreds of lines and no longer looks like the week you remember.

Because the ledger itself is account-side, an export is the only part of the record that lives on the device — and the only part a wiped machine can actually take with it. Naming exports by period, and keeping the previous one, turns any future check into a comparison of two files rather than a reconstruction from memory.

Reconciling a report line with what you remember

1. Open the closed-deal report on a period wider than the trade you are checking — a line written just outside a narrow window looks exactly like a missing trade.
2. Find the ticket first and work outward from it; times and prices repeat, ticket numbers do not.
3. Read the volume on the line before the profit. A line that closed part of a position answers only for that part.
4. Collect every line that belongs to the same idea, including the ones written when the position was reduced, and treat the group as the unit.
5. Add the commission field and the financing field for those lines before comparing anything — the profit field is the arithmetic of the line, not the cost of holding it.
6. Compare the recorded price with the level the deal went through at, not with the level you remember watching; those are two different questions.
7. Decide whether balance or equity is the total you had in mind — one is settled, the other still carries everything open.
8. Export the period once the lines make sense and keep the file; the export is what the next check compares against.

If a line still refuses to add up after this, the question belongs to that ticket and not to the build on your device — the record is kept against the account, so reinstalling the program cannot change a single field in it.

Where each part of the record is kept

A reinstall or a move to another machine changes the first group and leaves the second untouched.

What each column of a closed-deal line answers

Reconciliation means adding the fields of the lines that share an idea, not reading one column.
