The Trading Floor — Tab 7 of 9
Portfolios
Team capital accounts

How it fits the floor
Portfolios sits inside The Trading Floor — the same sidebar tab that holds Team Pulse, the thesis → set-up → execution pipeline, guardrails, allocations, and attribution. Retail journals bolt on a teams page; The Final Tape mirrors how prop desks actually operate.

Are portfolios required to execute a set-up?
Yes. The execute wizard assigns each team_trade to a portfolio so capital and P&L stay account-scoped.
Can we run paper and live side by side?
Yes. Portfolio type (live, paper, demo, backtest) lets the desk practice workflow without mixing risk contexts.
