FAQ
Common questions about how OptionsView tracks trades, profit and loss, and free plan limits.
How is profit and loss calculated?
Profits are attributed to your open month until you place a BTC order. When that happens, those amounts move to the BTC month instead.
If a position is expired or assigned, the associated profit or loss stays on the open month (it does not move with the BTC order flow).
Reported figures are net of fees—applicable fees are deducted from the amounts you see.
How do free plan trade limits work?
On the free plan, only newly logged trades count toward your monthly allowance (for example, the 3 free trades per usage period described on the Pricing page and in the Terms).
Updating an existing row—such as marking a trade as closed, assigned, or expired—does not consume one of those free entries. The limit applies when you add a new trade record, not when you change its status.
