Structured Recording

Keep the context behind every result

A useful journal should show more than whether a trade ended green or red. The Journal organizes the essential execution data so future reviews are grounded in facts.

  • Record date, asset, direction, entry and exit prices and position size.
  • Track trade duration and individual P&L in the same history row.
  • Attach a saved strategy and keep notes alongside the trade.
  • Use Add Trade for manual entries and Import to bring trades into the Journal workflow.

Execution + Strategy

Connect the trade to the plan that should guide the decision

The Journal does not have to be just a list of results. When a trade is linked to a saved strategy, review can compare real execution with a process defined in advance.

  • Link trades to strategies available in Strategy Lab.
  • Use the Strategy column to quickly identify which setups appear in your history.
  • Keep observations with the trade to preserve execution and review context.
  • Edit trades when you need to complete data and keep your history organized over time.
A Journal, Not a Scoreboard

P&L matters — but it is not the whole story

The purpose of the Trading Journal is to preserve execution and context so traders can review decisions, identify recurring patterns and understand the process that produced the results instead of looking only at the ending balance.
