Parameters of the "Protocol" evaluation

You can use these parameters to specify which criteria should apply to the protocol.

If you do not make any entries, the default settings are automatically used. This is the log for the current date for all securities in the custody account or holder.

The parameters in detail:

Parameters

Description

Start date

Start of the evaluation. Enter the start date in the form dd.mm.yy.

The default setting is the beginning of the current year.

Evaluation date

Evaluation date of the evaluation, which you can enter in the form dd.mm.yy.

The default setting is the current date or the evaluation date entered in the input field on the "Start" tab.

If no current prices are available for the specified date, the Infront Portfolio Manager searches for the last current price in the database (default), or sets "n/a" if no prices are available for the last 8 days.

To change this setting, select the desired configuration in the global settings in the "Settings" dialog box on the "Depot" tab in the "Asset valuation" field.

Currency

Select the desired currency from the list.

Cost calculation type

Select the calculation type of the purchase prices here. The default setting is "Average". To switch to FIFO calculation, select the "FIFO" entry.

Depending on the setting, the calculation of e.g. price and foreign exchange gains from securities positions also changes:

  • Average
    Basic principle: In the case of openings, the weighted average of the purchase prices of the existing position and the newly added units is calculated according to nominal value. The purchase price does not change in the event of a closing. There are no separate tranches with this type of calculation.
  • FIFO
    Basic principle: Openings generate new tranches. At closings, the shares from the oldest tranches are sold first.

Take expenses into account when calculating profits

Activate this checkbox if the expenses are to be included in the evaluation.
