What is the PipFarm dashboard?
The PipFarm dashboard is an application that tracks the progress of your challenges and simulated funded accounts. You can access our dashboard at app.pipfarm.com.
This guide will help you navigate the dashboard.
Switching accounts
The dropdown menu in the top left corner of your dashboard allows you to expand and collapse your active and inactive accounts.
Rules
The second row of the dashboard helps you track the two most important rules: maximum loss and daily loss. This section shows your current equity limits in USD and percentage and a progress bar indicating how close you are to breaching.
Kill Switch
The Kill switch is displayed in the middle of your dashboard. It is an equity-based take-profit and stop-loss feature that automatically closes all positions in your cTrader account. This feature is useful for ensuring you don't miss your profit target or hit your daily loss. For more information, read our Kill Switch guide.
Metrics
Besides monitoring rules, the dashboard shows important information related to rule calculation.
High watermark: The highest value your account reached and the basis for calculating the max trailing loss rule. While this metric is not relevant for static drawdown accounts, it is still shown.
Previous EOD balance: Your account balance at 22:00 GMT (21:00 GMT during US Daylight Savings) on the previous day and the basis for calculating the daily loss rule.
Equity: Your current cTrader account equity. It may deviate marginally from values shown in cTrader due to latency and rounding.
Balance: Your current cTrader account balance.
Profit target and profit share
The dashboard allows you to monitor your profit target and profit share. The profit target shows your progress in passing the challenge or scaling the account. The profit share card shows the profit split and current reward.
Time-based rules
The bottom row shows various time-based rules for your challenge and funded accounts.
Time limit: You have 365 days to complete each challenge stage.
Inactive period: The number of days you haven’t traded for. The limit is 28 days before your account is breached.
Profitable days: A trading day begins at 22:00 and finishes at 21:59 UTC. A profitable trading day is when your closing balance is 0.5% of your initial balance higher than your opening balance.
Daily loss reset
The daily loss resets at 22:05 GMT each day (21:05 during US Daylight Savings). The dashboard has a countdown timer to help you calculate.
XP and Rank
Your current XP and rank are displayed at the top right corner of the dashboard. Learn more about XP and Ranks in our Experience Program guide.
Daily summary
The daily summary page shows a daily summary of your metrics to help you track performance and progress with various rules, such as profitable trading days.
