PnL cards
Share a trade or your performance as an image with a percentages-only privacy boundary, and the certificates your account earns along the way.
PnL cards let you share a result as a clean image without revealing your account size or balance. You can generate a card for a single trade or for your overall performance.
Separately, your account earns certificates - a permanent, downloadable record of starting an evaluation, reaching funded, and each payout you complete. Those live on their own page and are covered at the bottom of this one.
Where to find them
- A single trade - the Share control on any closed trade in the dashboard journal or the terminal's trade history.
- Your performance - the Share control on the analytics page.
- A withdrawal - the Share control on any paid payout in your payout history. This certifies real USDC you were actually paid, with the on-chain transaction.
Each opens a modal with a live preview of the card and the export options below it. The page behind the modal blurs while it is open.
What a card shows
Percentages only, never balances
Cards show percentage returns only. They never include your account balance, position size, entry or exit price, or any dollar amount, the same privacy boundary as the public leaderboard and trader profiles.
- Trade card - the return on the trade (ROE %), the market and side, and a calm account-kind label ("Funded account" or "Evaluation account"), so the result is honest about the account it came from.
- Performance card - your return over the selected range, plus stats like win rate and profit factor. Low-sample stats are hidden until you have enough trades, so a tiny sample cannot be presented as a track record.
- Withdrawal certificate - your real USDC withdrawn and the on-chain transaction. This is the only card that shows a dollar amount, because it certifies real money you were actually paid; it carries no paper or evaluation label at all.

Real money and paper performance are never conflated
Performance cards (trade, performance, rank) carry a calm account-kind label, "Funded account" or "Evaluation account": their results are from a simulated evaluation on live prices, and the card says so. The withdrawal certificate is kept separate, showing real USDC you were paid with the on-chain transaction and no paper or evaluation framing. The two are distinct, so anything you share is honest about exactly what it is.
Certificates
Certificates are a different artifact from a shared card. A card is something you generate about a result; a certificate is a record your account has already earned, and it appears on its own the moment the underlying fact is true. They are collected on the Certificates page, under Earn in the sidebar.
What earns one
| Certificate | Earned by | What it reads |
|---|---|---|
| Certificate of entry | Buying and starting an evaluation | "Challenge accepted", with the evaluation's size and the month you started |
| Certificate of achievement | Reaching a funded account | "Funded trader", with the account size and the month you reached it |
| Certificate of achievement | Each completed profit payout | "Payout completed", with which payout it was and the month |
Nothing else earns one. There is no certificate for clearing phase 1 of a Arena · 2-Step, and referral commission payouts do not earn one - only profit payouts on your own trading do. Free-trial accounts earn no certificates at all.
The wall
The Certificates page shows every certificate you hold, newest first, with one led at the top.
| Element | What it does |
|---|---|
| The lead certificate | Your newest achievement - funded or payout - rather than simply your newest certificate. Starting another evaluation does not push a funded card out of the lead. If you have no achievements yet, your newest entry certificate leads. |
| The list | Every certificate you hold, each titled by what distinguishes it: a funded one by its account size, a payout by which payout it was. |
| Open a certificate | Opens the full card, with a Download button. Certificates are download-only - there is no post-to-X action on them. |
What a certificate never shows
No dollar amounts, including in the filename
A certificate carries no balance, no profit figure, and no payout amount - not on the artwork and not in the name of the file you download. The account size ("$50K") is the one figure that appears, the same exception the leaderboard makes. A payout certificate does not even carry that: it records which payout it was and when, because a payout is not attributed to a single account.
This is what separates a payout certificate from the withdrawal card described above. The withdrawal card is a share card and it deliberately shows the real USDC you were paid, with the on-chain transaction. The payout certificate is a record of the event, with no amount at all. They are two artifacts about the same payment, and only one of them carries a figure.
Two things that surprise people, and both are deliberate
- They are retroactive. Certificates are derived from what your account has already done, so every certificate you have earned exists now - nothing had to be issued at the time.
- A breach does not take one away. If a funded account later breaches, you keep its certificate. It records that you reached funded, which stays true. That is also why the wording is past tense: "Reached March 2026", never a claim about your status today.
