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.
📘Concept
Why import beats manual entry
Importing pulls the exact fills from your broker — entry, exit, size, fees — with no typos and no rounding. Your metrics are only as honest as the data behind them, and an export is the most honest source you have.
✕Common mistake
Logging only the trades you remember
Hand-typing trades quietly drops the ones you would rather forget, which is exactly the data that would help you most. A full import keeps the losers in the sample.
⚠️Warning
Mismatched columns between brokers are the most common import error. Check that symbol, side, and P&L map correctly before you trust the numbers.
