Product Updates
A short, plain-language record of every update we put live. Newest first.
One Trading Plan, trading hours and a Change log
- Your Trading Plan is now one complete plan: risk, goals, daily routine, Compound and withdrawals together. Each account picks one whole plan.
- New plans start from Careful, Standard or Risky presets, and linked numbers fill in automatically.
- See your plan's best and worst case in money before you trade.
- Set your trading days and hours. A trade outside your hours warns you or asks you to confirm, as you choose. Changes to your hours start the next day.
- The new Change log tab under Account lists every plan change, when you saved it and when it takes effect.
- Market clocks for Sydney, Tokyo, London and New York now sit in the top bar, and Analytics sessions follow each market's real opening hours.
- Days and weeks in the Dashboard, Analytics, Trades and Recaps follow your chosen city.
- The Account screen shows each account's own balance and plan figures.
- Compound shows Easy, Average and Hard as tabs. Reaching any level counts.
- Older accounts now have a home city for counting days, so trading hours and the day and week views work on them too.
- Closing a window with unsaved changes now asks before throwing them away.
- Phone layouts fit better: the top bar, Dashboard headers and plan progress no longer overlap.
- If your app is out of date, MethodMark now tells you to reload.
New look: the trading desk
- MethodMark has a new look: a calm, dense trading-desk layout where every card lines up on one grid. Dark and light themes are both included.
- New fonts make numbers, dates and times easier to read and line up in columns.
- Charts are clearer and consistent everywhere. Hover, tap or use the arrow keys on any chart to see its exact values.
- Analytics has new charts: win, loss and break-even roses by weekday and time of day, a weekday × hour grid, risk used against your limits, and your win/loss streaks.
- The Dashboard now shows Plan progress at the top, Recent activity beside Next actions, and the Trading profile radar with details when you hover a point.
- Card headers stay on one line, with extra details moved into the ⓘ next to each title.
- Chart tables now list every period, so nothing hides behind a scroll.
- The Calculator's Lot size, Gross P&L and pip tools now sit side by side.
Quick feedback, Product Updates and time zones
- Send a bug report or idea from any page with the speech-bubble button at the top, next to search.
- Every update is now listed on the public Product Updates page, linked from the website menu.
- Pick your time zone from a searchable list of cities, or leave it on Automatic.
- When you travel, MethodMark asks before showing times in your new time zone. Your trades always keep the exact moment they happened.
- Trade details show where a time was logged when it differs from your current time zone.
- Calendars and weekly views now always start on Monday, matching how accounts count weeks.
- Fixed password reset. The email link now opens the page to choose a new password, and your journal opens again once you sign in with it.
- MethodMark opens faster and reloads less when you switch accounts or come back to the tab.
- Loading and saving your journal is faster.
- Settings is simpler: four sections instead of seven, with rarely used options removed.
- Deletes now always ask before removing anything, and amounts always show their currency symbol.
- Reduced motion now follows your device's own setting.
Privacy notice update
- Feedback you send may be copied into a private GitHub issue tracker so fixes can be tracked. Your username and email address are not included.
- Staff tools now live outside the app and require two-factor sign-in.
New backup format and Backtesting cleanup
- Backups now use one new format. Older backup files can no longer be restored, so download a fresh backup after this update.
- Removed the old unconfirmed Backtesting records; every saved test now keeps its whole-trade review.
Workspace presentation refresh
- Aligned cards, headings, tabs, and lists across Balance Activity, Calculator, Compound, Account, and Trades.
- Aligned Recaps, Dashboard, Analytics, Settings, and Administration with the same workspace presentation.
Account history, daily preparation, and Dual analytics
- Added retained Trading Plan history so account plan changes can be reviewed.
- Added daily preparation records alongside Recaps, with saved answers and revision history.
- Added Dual mode contribution views for cumulative results, close history, and period results.
Backtesting and balance context
- Clarified planned versus actual risk/reward in Backtesting Analytics, including sample coverage.
- Limited Balance Activity to supported monetary accounts and kept summaries hidden while account data loads.
Trade-save and dialog reliability
- Improved trade-save retries when screenshot attachments fail.
- Improved keyboard navigation and focus restoration in dialogs.
Partial-exit P&L signs
- Preserved explicit positive P&L amounts on partial exits, including trades marked as losses.
