How Do I Manage My Open Trades in MatchTrader?

All open trades and pending orders are managed from the Positions tab in MatchTrader. Here’s a full guide to monitoring, modifying, and closing your trades.

Viewing Your Open Trades

  1. Log in to app.thefloor8.com and open MatchTrader

  2. Click the “Positions” tab at the bottom of the screen

  3. All open positions are listed with: instrument, direction (Buy/Sell), volume, entry price, current price, P&L, stop-loss, and take-profit

Monitoring Your Account Balance and Drawdown

The top bar of MatchTrader displays your real-time account metrics:

  • Balance — Your account balance before open trade P&L

  • Equity — Your balance including current unrealised P&L

  • Margin — Margin currently in use

  • Free Margin — Available margin for new positions

.

  1. Go to the Positions tab

  2. Click the edit icon next to the trade you want to modify

  3. Update the Stop Loss and/or Take Profit price levels

  4. Click “Modify” to confirm

.

Closing a Trade

  1. Go to the Positions tab

  2. Find the trade you want to close

  3. Click the X / close button next to the trade

Partially Closing a Trade
