Dashboard Home
The dashboard home is your trading command center. The moment you log in it shows where your account stands — balance, equity, and today's profit or loss — alongside your live positions, a calendar of daily results, and a running feed of what TTMT has done on your behalf. When something needs your attention, a banner appears at the top instead of making you hunt for it.
A quick tour, top to bottom
The home page stacks its sections in the order you read them:
- Greeting — a welcome that tracks your activity streak.
- Attention banners — appear only when something needs you (recovery guidance, a dropped connection, a symbol mismatch).
- Financial hero — balance, equity, today's P&L, and a recent-value sparkline.
- Live positions pulse — a compact view of what's open right now.
- Risk & performance metrics — headline numbers like win rate and today's P&L against your Risk Limit.
- Channel comparison — side-by-side performance cards for your channels.
- Activity feed and P&L calendar — a timeline of events and a heatmap of daily results.
- System status — health indicators confirming TTMT is running.
If you have more than one trading account, an account switcher lets you change which account you're viewing — in the header on desktop, inline on mobile — and everything on the page is scoped to that active account.
Your greeting and streak
A welcome block greets you at the top and notes your activity streak. It's a motivational header, not a control — when you've had a profitable run, the greeting reflects it.
Attention banners (only when they matter)
These banners stay hidden while everything's healthy and slide in at the top when it isn't. There are three.
Recovery Guidance is an advisory banner that appears when today's loss reaches 10%, 20%, or 40% of your current account balance — framed as minor, big, or major. It measures today's loss against your current balance, not against a past peak. It is guidance, not a stop: it suggests slowing down or stepping back, but it never halts trading.
WARNING
Recovery Guidance is advice, not a brake. It tells you you're having a rough day; it does not stop trading. The feature that actually stops trading is the Risk Limit — see Risk Limits & Halt.
Connection Down appears when an account's broker connection has dropped, with a prompt to reconnect. Without it, trades on that account could silently stop firing while you assume everything's running. See Connection Issues for how to reconnect.
Symbol Health appears when a channel sends signals on symbols that can't be matched to your broker's symbol names — for example a channel sends US30 but your broker calls it DJ30. The banner warns you so you fix the mapping before missing trades. Without it, those signals would quietly fail to open any trade. See Symbol Mapping.
The financial hero
The hero band shows your balance, equity, today's P&L, and a sparkline of your recent account value. Balance is your settled cash; equity includes the floating profit or loss from positions that are still open.
If you have multiple accounts and you're viewing "All," the headline balance shows a dash (—) — there's no single meaningful balance to show across mixed Demo, Live, and Prop Firm accounts. Switch to a specific account to see its balance.
Live positions pulse
A compact view of the positions currently open. It auto-hides when you have none. For the full real-time surface — live P&L per position and per-position controls — go to Live View.
Risk & performance metrics strip
A merged strip of headline numbers: win rate, today's P&L against your configured Risk Limit, and your open exposure. Where it shows today's P&L against your Risk Limit, the figure links out to the safety page rather than re-explaining how the halt works.
Channel comparison
Side-by-side performance cards for your channels, so you can see at a glance which channels are pulling their weight. This section auto-hides when you're following fewer than two channels.
Activity feed and P&L calendar
The activity feed is a timeline of recent events — trades opening, trades closing won or lost, breakevens moving your stop, follow-up signals arriving. The wording it uses for outcomes (Won, Lost) is the same chip wording you see in the Trade Log, where the full set of chips is explained.
The P&L calendar is a heatmap: each day is coloured by that day's net result — green for up, red for down. A profitable week shows as a row of green days. Click any day to jump straight to that day's trades.
TIP
Click any day on the calendar to jump straight to that day's trades — handy for reviewing a single bad session or confirming a winning streak.
System status
A collapsed strip of health indicators — broker connection, signal monitoring, and the rest — so you can confirm at a glance that TTMT is running without opening anything.
When trading is paused (the header Risk Limit indicator)
In the header sits a daily-loss indicator that tracks today's P&L against your account's Risk Limit. If you hit the limit — say a 5% daily-loss cap — trading halts automatically, the indicator turns red, your open trades close, and a panel explains why. The panel offers two recovery paths: Resume keeps you trading today while preserving the day's running totals, and Recalibrate re-anchors the limit after you've deposited or withdrawn money.
This is the enforced auto-cap, and it's different from the advisory Recovery Guidance banner above. Recovery Guidance suggests you slow down; the Risk Limit actually stops you.
INFO
Resume and Recalibrate are different. Resume keeps today's running loss total so the limit still protects you for the rest of the day. Recalibrate is only for when you've moved money in or out of the account and the limit's reference point is wrong.
For the full story — how the limit is calculated and exactly what Resume and Recalibrate do — see Risk Limits & Halt.
