💰 KPI Cards

⬅️ Back to Dashboard Overview

The three KPI cards at the top of the dashboard give you a quick diagnostic of your portfolio. All values respect the time range and broker scope selected at the top of the page.

KPI Cards Overview

📉 Card 1 — Period P&L

Period P&L Card

The Period P&L card shows how much money your portfolio actually earned in the selected window — after removing the effect of your own deposits and withdrawals.

The hero number is calculated using the following formula:

\[\text{Period P&L} = \text{NAV}_{\text{end}} - \text{NAV}_{\text{start}} - \text{Net Flows}_{\text{period}}\]

A positive number means you earned money from investment activity. A negative number means you lost money net of capital movements.

The number below the hero

Right under the Period P&L value, a smaller line shows something like +45.20 (+3.10%).

  • The amount is the day-over-day (today vs. yesterday) change in your Total P&L — your all-time accumulated gain/loss, not just the selected period.
  • The percentage expresses it as a share of yesterday's Period P&L — it tells you how much today's move "weighed" on the period result you're currently viewing.
\[\text{Daily change} = \text{Total P&L}_{\text{today}} - \text{Total P&L}_{\text{yesterday}}\]

This line only appears once the history has at least two daily points.

The breakdown rows

Row What it measures
Unrealized change How much your open positions' unrealized gain/loss changed during the period
Sales Realized gain or loss from positions closed during the period (sell price − average cost)
Dividends & interest Cash income from dividends, bond coupons, and P2P interest
Fees & taxes Commissions and taxes recorded as transactions

Identity check

All four rows add up to the Period P&L hero number (± small residuals from FX rounding).

📈 Card 2 — Returns

Returns Card

The Returns card shows rate-of-return metrics — percentages that let you compare performance independently of portfolio size.

Timing Effect

The Timing Effect at the top of the card measures whether your deposit/withdrawal decisions added or subtracted value compared to a passive buy-and-hold strategy:

\[\text{Timing Effect} = \text{MWRR}_{\text{cumulative}} - \text{TWRR}_{\text{cumulative}}\]
  • Favorable (positive) ✅: you tended to deposit when prices were low, boosting your personal return above what the assets alone earned.
  • Unfavorable (negative) ❌: you tended to deposit at peaks or missed dips, dragging your return below pure asset performance.

The number below the Timing Effect

Below the Timing Effect you'll see a small percentage (e.g. +0.35%) — it's the change in your Total P&L from yesterday to today, expressed as a share of yesterday's net worth:

\[\text{%Daily change} = \frac{\text{Total P&L}_{\text{today}} - \text{Total P&L}_{\text{yesterday}}}{\text{Net Worth}_{\text{yesterday}}} \times 100\]

It's a rough estimate of today's return — a quick pulse check. It is not the ROI, TWRR, or MWRR shown in the rows below, which stay anchored to the full selected period.

The four return metrics

Metric Question it answers
ROI How much did I gain relative to my net invested capital?
TWRR How did my asset choices perform, independent of when I deposited?
MWRR cumulative What is the cumulative money-weighted return for my actual cash flows?
MWRR annualized At what yearly compound rate did my capital actually grow?

TWRR vs. MWRR

  • TWRR measures the asset strategy — same as how a fund manager is evaluated.
  • MWRR measures your personal result — including the timing of your deposits.
  • The gap between them is the Timing Effect.

💰 Card 3 — Net Worth

Net Worth Card

The Net Worth card shows the absolute value of your portfolio at the end of the selected period.

The number below Net Worth

Below the Net Worth value you'll find your Total P&L, with its percentage change in parentheses — e.g. +12,450.30 (+0.35%).

  • The amount is your Total P&L — the gain or loss accumulated since the beginning, across this scope's whole history (not just the current period).
  • The percentage in parentheses expresses the day-over-day (today vs. yesterday) change of this Total P&L, as a share of yesterday's Total P&L.
\[\text{Total P&L} = \text{Net Worth} - \text{Net Capital Invested Since Inception}\]

Note: "Net Capital Invested Since Inception" here is the sum of all deposits minus all withdrawals since you started using this scope — a different, larger figure than the "Deposited Capital" row below, which only counts movements within the selected period.

🔗 Theory: Deposited Capital, Total PnL and Cash Pools

What the rows mean

Row Definition
Market Value Current market price × quantity for all held assets
Book Value What you paid for your open positions (average cost × qty)
Cash Liquid balance held in broker accounts
Deposited Capital Net external capital contributed to this scope

The Deposited Capital bar

The horizontal bar below the rows visualizes:

  • 🟢 Total deposited — all deposits in the period
  • 🔴 Total withdrawn — all withdrawals in the period

The hero number shows the net balance (deposited − withdrawn).

Point-in-time vs. period

Market Value, Book Value, and Cash are snapshots at the end date — they are independent of the start date. Deposited Capital is period-scoped — it counts deposits and withdrawals between the start and end of the selected range.
