Getting Started
New here? Start with what a journal is, why importing your history matters, and how to review your first trade.
What is a trading journal?
A trading journal is the full record of your trades plus your own notes, kept in one place. Instead of relying on memory, you review what you actually did and learn from it.
Why import your history?
Importing your past trades means your numbers and reviews are based on what really happened, not guesswork. You can load a CSV or a broker statement instead of typing everything by hand.
What happens after import?
Once your trades are in, the app organises them by symbol, side, entry, and exit, and starts calculating your metrics. From there you can filter, tag, and review.
How to review a trade
Reviewing means looking back honestly: what was the plan, what did you do, and what can you learn? Add tags and a short note so patterns become visible over time.
