Account Activity

 

The Activity window provides detailed records of cash and trade transactions (including executed trades) for specified time periods. Account Activity provides two outlets for viewing account records: "Account Information" and "Activity.”

 

The Account Information link connects you with the clearing firm's secure data archives. Use this resource to view account activity from the previous trading day back to account opening. Simply log on and define parameters for your search.

 

The Activity section provides a quicker but more limited service. View account activity for the previous day, previous week or previous month. For longer time periods, please use the Account Information.
