[IB Beginner] To retrieve trading record, YTD

Discussion in 'Interactive Brokers' started by jk90029, May 18, 2015.

  1. Dear-

    As a new beginner, we can see daily trading record in menu Reports/Activity/ or Report/TradeConfirm/ , FOR ONLY ONE DAY, as shown below in attached file.

    Now, it is hard and time-consuming to click from Jan to May, for all the trading records.
    So there should be some menu to get all the record together, roughly with 100 lines.

    Where is the menu? Please show me exact menu place, for a newbie.

    PS) Hopefully xls or txt with TAB format

    Cripes, jk. There are drop down menus. Explore a little.

    Instead of selecting daily, select custom date range.

    Np. You master TWS and any other platform is a cakewalk.
     
  5. I followed your capture above, to print the report YTD?

    Furthermore, may I get the record (real data to analyse) in Excel or csv or other format?
     
  6. Look in C:\Jts\youraccountnamehash\executions.txt (It may be C:\IBJts on some systems). That's a csv-like file (except it uses semicolons instead of commas) of all your trades.
