Manage all your virtual accounts, strategy runs, prop challenges (**Challenges**) and competitions (**Competitions**) in one place. Adjust open trades with the **Manage** button or on the chart, measure your manual edits against pure AI execution, and share a public page verified by a hash chain (**SHA-256**). Example: on the [virtual accounts page](), open your virtual account and set a `3%` daily drawdown limit on the **Settings** tab. On the open trades tab, check your manual edits on the **Your manual actions this month** card and turn on your verified public page link. ## Navigate the virtual accounts hub When you open the [virtual accounts page](), four tabs appear at the top of the page: - **Accounts** tab: lists all your virtual accounts (standard, challenge and competition accounts) with balance, equity, net profit, open trades and the **New virtual account** button. - **Strategies × accounts** tab: a matrix table showing which strategies run on which virtual accounts. Each cell displays net profit, closed trades, win rate (`% won`) and average `R` (such as `12 closed · 67% won · avg +0.65R`). - **Competitions** tab: lists virtual-money competitions you can join in one click to get a dedicated virtual account with identical rules and track your rank. - **Challenges** tab: ready-made prop challenge templates with profit target, daily loss limit, max drawdown, minimum trading days and profit consistency rules. Test your strategy before buying a real challenge, and click **Start a new attempt** if an attempt fails. ![Virtual accounts page in AI Trading Journal with view tabs, New virtual account button and table of virtual accounts with active strategies.](https://m.forecastcity.com/t/tnt_forecastcity/media/2d/2d6f200921a7a6af1bd72daa15defa6aef5e196ce018ebab0fadf350ba0ee3c0.png) Accounts view on the virtual accounts page 1.

From the **Manage** menu, close the trade (**Close now**), close part of the size (**Close part**, such as `25%`, `50%` or `75%`) or move the stop to entry (**Move stop to entry**). When you edit a strategy trade by hand, the forward test runs a `"strategy only"` shadow trade in the background. The **Your manual actions this month** card then shows how many dollars and `R` your manual actions added or cost. 2. **History** tab: lists closed trades with entry price, the **EXIT** column (exit price, or weighted average with the `avg` badge on multi-target trades), lot size, dollar result, `R` multiple and exit reason. 3. **Event log** tab: an append-only ledger of all account activity in order, which you can download with **Export CSV**. 4. **Equity** and **Report** tabs: the equity curve chart and the full analytics report for the account in AI Trading Journal. ![Virtual account detail page with the Balance and Equity summary strip, active strategy run, six account tabs and open trades table.](https://m.forecastcity.com/t/tnt_forecastcity/media/e2/e256a8ff126faa45cd66d8f432db652f9bb4eadff2a5647a7dbf9cd7bb85a4bb.png) Virtual account detail page and open trades table with the Manage button 1.
