Trade History
The MT Monitor Trade History component allows to generate two types of reports:
- Trades: displays MT4 trades the way they appear in the MT4 server.
- Orders: displays MT4 trades as buy and sell trades the way they are sent to the XCore. It also allows tracking the accumulated buy and sell volumes, in addition to net positions on a per symbol basis.

Order Report
The Orders Report displays the MT4 trades as buy and sell orders, the way they are sent to the XCore. For closed trades, it shows two entries that represent both sides of the trade, the first being the actual MT4 trade and the latter being the opposite side of the trades. All orders are sorted chronologically depending on the time at which the trade was opened/closed in the MT4.
This report allows us to track each order the way it was sent to the XCore. In addition, it keeps tracking of the total volumes and net positions on a per symbol basis at each point in time an order was placed.
