Normally there is a ticket or docket number to help identify the trade. You will nearly always find the time and date of the trade. The value date if the currency were to be delivered. You should always see the direction of the trade, buy or sell (Long or Short).

The amount and rate you bought or sold, balance to let you know if you made a profit or a loss. You should also see any open positions you may have and the margin requirements for that position.

A lot of the more modern systems will show your open position as though it has been closed just to give you an up to the minute balance.
