Multiple trading accounts

An Axel journal account mirrors one real trading account: your personal account, a prop-firm challenge, a demo. Each keeps its own trades, transactions, notes-linked strategies, layout, theme, background and chart preferences.

Creating an account

The account form: identity, type, deposit, currency and timezone.

1. Click the account block at the top of the sidebar → ＋ New account.
2. Fill the form:
   • Name — e.g. “Main account”, “FTMO 100k”.
   • Type — Personal funds · Prop firm · Demo · Mixed.
   • Account number — your broker account id (optional but useful).
   • Instrument — the main symbol you trade on it.
   • Initial deposit and default lot.
   • Base currency — 24 currencies available; every amount in the app displays in it.
   • Your timezone — used to place your trades at the right local hour in calendars and heatmaps.
3. ✓ Save.

Switching, editing, deleting

• Switch — open the account menu and click another account. Data, layout, accent, background, chart prefs: everything follows.
• Edit — ✎ next to the account (or Settings → Accounts) reopens the form.
• Delete — in the edit modal, the × Delete button removes the account and its data after confirmation.
