3. Click your **avatar** → **Admin** (gold background)
4. Admin panel opens with all features

### Checking Prices

Run the diagnostic script anytime:
```bash
node check-prices.js

- API key status

- Price coverage percentage
- Sample items with/without prices
- Recommendations

node update-prices-now.js cs2
node update-prices-now.js rust

## 📊 Understanding Profit

### Revenue Calculation

```
Gross Profit = Sum of all fees collected
Net Profit = Gross Profit - (Withdrawals - Deposits)
```

### Example

```
Users deposited:     $10,000
Users withdrew:      $6,000
Fees collected:      $500
───────────────────────────
Net Profit = $500 - ($6,000 - $10,000)
           = $500 - (-$4,000)
           = $4,500
```

You're holding $4,000 of user funds (float) + $500 profit = $4,500 total.

### Key Metrics

- **Deposits**: Money added by users (not profit, it's their funds)
- **Withdrawals**: Money removed by users (reduces float)
- **Purchases**: Items bought (internal transaction)
- **Sales**: Items sold (generates fees)
- **Fees**: YOUR REVENUE (typically % of each sale)
- **Net Balance**: `Deposits - Withdrawals` (user funds you're holding)

## 🔧 Configuration

### Environment Variables

Required in `.env`:
```env
# Steam API Key (get from https://steamapis.com/)
STEAM_APIS_KEY=your_key_here

# Admin Access
ADMIN_STEAM_IDS=76561198027608071

# Automatic Updates (optional in dev)
ENABLE_PRICE_UPDATES=true
```

### Automatic Updates

**Production**: Always enabled
**Development**: Set `ENABLE_PRICE_UPDATES=true`

Updates run:

### Update Schedule

You can adjust via Admin API:
```bash
POST /api/admin/prices/schedule
{
  "intervalMinutes": 60
}
```

## 🎯 Item Price Coverage

### Why Some Items Don't Match

1. **Different Names**: DB has "AK-47 | Redline" but Steam has "AK-47 | Redline (Field-Tested)"
2. **Not Tradable**: Some items aren't on Steam market
3. **Discontinued**: Items no longer available
4. **Spelling Differences**: Minor name variations

### Solutions

1. **Use Price Override**: Manually set prices in Admin Panel
2. **Update Item Names**: Match Steam market names exactly
3. **Wait for Updates**: System tries multiple matching strategies

### Current Matching Strategy

The system tries 3 methods:
1. **Exact match**: `AK-47 | Redline`
2. **With wear**: `AK-47 | Redline (Field-Tested)`
3. **Partial match**: Strips wear/prefixes and compares base names

---

## 📝 Troubleshooting

### No Prices Showing

**Check 1**: Run diagnostic
```bash
node check-prices.js
```

**Check 2**: Verify API key
```bash
echo $STEAM_APIS_KEY
```

**Check 3**: Manual update
```bash
node update-prices-now.js
```

### Items Tab Not Loading

**Issue**: Empty filter values cause validation errors
**Fixed**: ✅ Query params now filter out empty values
**Solution**: Just refresh the page - it works now

### Admin Menu Not Gold

**Issue**: NavBar component not updated
**Fixed**: ✅ Gold gradient added to Admin menu item
**Look for**: Yellow/gold background in user dropdown

### Prices Not Auto-Updating

**Check**: Is backend running?
**Check**: Is `ENABLE_PRICE_UPDATES=true` in dev?
**Check**: Backend logs show "⏰ Scheduling automatic price updates"

## 🔐 Security Notes
