The Account Center Tab (Sector 4)
This tab provides a convenient location from which you can manage every aspect of your account. Here you can view account summaries/breakdowns, add and remove funds from your account and manage your profile. Its functions and usage are basically the same with the web based version described in Part 3 of this tutorial.
The Positions tab (Section 4)
Here you can view the state of all positions that are currently open or recently closed. Clicking on the “Clear” button erases all the closed positions so that you can only see the ones that are currently open. The Close All button will close several positions at once based on the option you select from the box that pops up when you click on the button (options are All positions, Short positions only and Long positions only).
Tip: Short positions are trades where you executed a sell order, while Long positions are trades where you executed a buy order.
The Charting tab (Section 4)
This tab sill display a time based chart of any selected currency pair. Right clicking within the chart itself provides additional options for this tab, including the chart type, time scale, currency pair and buy/sell options. These charts can prove very helpful by giving a visual representation of the state and recent history of the particular instrument in the market.
It also provides an extensive choice of tools (indicators) that can be used to analyse the charts in real time. Play around with the other options because this chart may become an indispensable tool in your forex trading career.
