Chapter 2. Managing Contracts

When you activate Strategy Runner, it displays your portfolio, which includes your contracts and their respective strategies, where they have been added. The Contracts table displays the active contracts (see Figure 2.1 below). If you wish, you can customize the table view by removing and adding columns. You can also resize columns as required and sort the table according to the desired column.

Except for deleting and adding contracts, you cannot modify the data in this table.
