    What do the data labels mean?

    Capture, action attribution and account identity answer different questions. A complete example window is not tick-complete market history. Unknown action attribution does not turn a confirmed price change into a manual action. If the account source is ambiguous, aggregate money results are withheld.

    The position size comes from your budget and stop distance. Step through this declared EURUSD example to see why each input matters.
