CharlesWhat's new in Charles v1.10.1
Charles v1.10.1 puts Charles's P&L first in Fetch, drops Fetch's voice for captions, and fixes the tabs on narrow screens.
This is a small release, and it's all about Fetch, the optional add-on. How Charles trades doesn't change.
Fetch shows bitcoin and SPY trade by trade, with the reason for every move. It uses your Alpaca keys for SPY's prices and never places an order. Like the other add-ons, it's off until you turn it on, and it gets its own dashboard tab:

Fetch now leads with Charles's P&L
The top of the Fetch tab now shows how Charles is doing, counted from zero:
- The total, in green when it's above zero and red when it's below.
- A line drawn around zero, so you can see where it has been over time.
- Today on its own.
- The open trade.
- Closed trades, and how many of them won.
The list of Charles's trades has changed too. Each sell now shows what that trade made or lost, so you don't have to work it out from the buy and the sell.
These figures describe what has already happened in Fetch. They don't say anything about what comes next.
Fetch no longer speaks
Fetch's voice is gone. Charles still explains each move in a sentence, and those sentences now appear only as captions on the screen. If you used to listen to Fetch, read the captions instead.
The tabs fit on a narrow screen again
With Fetch turned on, the dashboard has six tabs. On a narrow computer screen, they pushed the bell and settings off the right-hand edge. Now all six tabs fit, and the bell and settings stay where you can reach them.
If you don't use Fetch, you won't notice any change in this release.
