First, in Manage → Accounts, add a cash account with type Futures margin, then transfer money into it from your settlement account (this is not new capital).
In “Add a futures or options trade” under Records → Futures & options, enter: trade date, contract code (TX, MTX, TMF, TXO…fill in the value per point), future or call / put, expiry month (202611; weekly contracts like 202611W2), strike, long or short, contracts, trade price in points and fee. Leave the transaction tax blank to estimate it from the tax rate.
A trade in the opposite direction closes positions first-in, first-out. Set “Open/close” to auto, open or close as your trade confirmation shows. The “Close” button on an open position copies its details into the form.
Settlement prices are fetched from TAIFEX every day (click “Update TAIFEX data” to refetch). Positions past their last trading day show “Settle at expiry”.

Margin and risk indicators are estimated from TAIFEX's margin table (including spread offsets) and are for reference only; your futures broker's figures are what count. Individuals' futures trading income is currently exempt from income tax, so the tax summary doesn't list it.
