Records the workflow can organize

  • Trade dates, instruments and holding periods
  • Activity volume and frequency
  • P&L, fees and account context
  • Notes and source records used for review

Practical review sequence

  • Import or enter complete activity
  • Reconcile broker records and open positions
  • Review activity evidence over the relevant period
  • Take the records and unresolved questions to a qualified U.S. professional
