User Guide: Decimal Places and Rounding in the Platform

Introduction

As a trader or investor on the Reluna platform, keeping track of your portfolio positions and transactions is essential for making informed decisions. Values in the platform, such as transactions, orders, and positions, are calculated based on real-time data from custodians or manual imports. To make things easier for you, the platform allows you to customize how values are displayed, particularly when it comes to decimals and rounding.

This guide explains how you can adjust these settings to match your needs, ensuring a more personalized experience while working with your financial data.

How to Customize Decimal Display for Your Needs

You can customize decimal places for the following fields in the platform tables:

  • Quantities

  • Amounts

  • PNL

  • PNL (%)

  • Prices

  • Accrued

How Rounding Works

Depending on the value and the field, the platform will apply rounding rules to ensure your data is displayed with the right level of precision.

  • Rounding Method

The platform uses a round-up method for rounding values. Here’s how rounding is applied:

  • Rounding Example:

    • 3.5673.57 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

    • 3.4323.43 (Rounded to 2 decimals)

    • 3.1003.1 (Rounded to 1 decimal)

  • For Price/Accrued Specific Rounding:

    • 0.00912760.00913 (Rounded to 5 decimals)

      • Set up the Decimals by clicking on “-” or “+” buttons.

      • Use Reset To Default to go back to 2 decimal places.

      • Click on Info icon to check which are the fields on the tables that are changed.

  1. Save Your Preferences

    • Once you set your preferences, they will be automatically applied to the platform views (tables, forms) and also to any exported files.

  2. Platform Validation

    • The platform will check for valid inputs and ensure that nothing exceeds the maximum decimal limits, so you never have to worry about incorrect formatting or data errors.

How Customization Helps You in Different Areas of the Platform
