Net Summary

The Net Summary page provides a consolidated real-time overview of trading exposure, profitability, and client activity for the selected execution book. Using the tabs at the top of the page, users can switch between A-Book and B-Book, with all metrics, charts, and tables dynamically recalculated for the chosen book.

This page is primarily used by dealers and risk managers to monitor aggregated PnL, net exposure, leverage, and symbol-level concentration.

Purpose​

The Net Summary page enables quick assessment of:

  • Financial performance of the selected book (A-Book or B-Book)
  • Net client exposure by instrument
  • Trading activity, leverage, and drawdown across active accounts
  • Symbols contributing most to risk or PnL

Book Selection​

At the top of the page, A-Book / B-Book tabs allow switching the data context:

  • A-Book – Displays metrics related to externally hedged trades
  • B-Book – Displays metrics related to internally managed trades

All values on the page strictly correspond to the currently selected book.

Filters and Controls​

Global filters at the top of the page allow narrowing the data scope:

  • Trade servers – Filter by trading server
  • Countries – Filter by client country
  • Symbol groups – Filter by instrument group
  • Account groups – Filter by account classification
  • Trade reasons – Filter by order execution reason
  • Agents – Filter by IB/agent
  • Dealer side toggle – Enable or disable dealer-side view

All widgets and tables are updated in real time according to the selected filters and book.

Top Net Volumes​

The Top Net Volumes chart highlights instruments with the largest net exposure within the selected book and also can be found in the Exposures section on the left panel.
It helps identify symbols that currently represent the highest concentration of volume or directional risk.
The list can be expanded using Show more.

Data Table​

The Data table contains detailed symbol-level statistics for the selected book:

  • Symbol
  • Volume in base asset
  • Volume (USD)
  • Total lots
  • Lots buy / lots sell
  • Buy VWAP / Sell VWAP
  • VWAP (net)
  • Unrealized PnL (USD, incl. swaps & commissions)
  • Volume sentiment – Visual comparison of buy vs sell volume
  • Accounts sentiment – Distribution of long vs short accounts

The table supports quick search and sorting for in-depth analysis.

Heatmap​

The Heatmap tab provides a visual representation of trading volume distribution for the selected book (A-Book or B-Book). It complements the tabular view by allowing quick identification of symbols with the highest concentration of activity.

Purpose​

The Heatmap is designed to:

  • Quickly highlight instruments with dominant trading volumes
  • Visually compare relative volume sizes across symbols
  • Identify concentration risk at a glance

Visualization Logic​

  • Each rectangle represents a single trading symbol
  • The size of the rectangle corresponds to the symbol’s total trading volume
  • Larger areas indicate higher relative volume within the selected book
  • The heatmap is recalculated dynamically based on:
    • Selected book (A-Book or B-Book)
    • Active global filters (servers, countries, symbol groups, accounts, etc.)

Tooltip Information​

Hovering over a symbol displays a tooltip with detailed metrics, including:

  • Symbol name
  • Volume in base asset
  • Volume (USD)
  • Volume buy (USD)
  • Volume sell (USD)

This allows precise inspection without switching back to the data table.

Usage Notes​

  • All data is updated in real time.
  • Metrics and positions are shown only for the currently selected book.
  • Color coding is consistent across the page: green indicates positive values, red indicates negative values.
  • Sentiment indicators are visual aids and should be interpreted together with absolute volumes and PnL.
  • The Heatmap reflects aggregated volumes only, not PnL
  • It is intended for visual prioritization, not detailed analysis
  • For exact numerical values and additional metrics, use the Data table tab
  • The Heatmap always corresponds to the currently selected book and filters
