Your P&L does not tell the whole story. Trader Journal is a trading journal built around one question: did you follow your process? Plan a trade, record what actually happened, and review the rules, decisions, and emotions behind the outcome. A losing trade can show excellent execution. A profitable trade can still hide a broken rule. PLAN BEFORE THE OUTCOME • Record the setup, entry condition, invalidation, stop, target, and planned risk • Attach the personal rules that matter for the trade • Capture market context, timeframe, session, confidence, and emotion • Convert a plan into an active or closed trade without re-entering it REVIEW PLAN VS. EXECUTION • Compare planned entry, stop, and target with the recorded execution • Review partial exits, fees, position changes, and the complete trade timeline • Classify every reviewed result as a good win, good loss, bad win, or bad loss • See a transparent discipline score calculated from your own answers—not from profit JOURNAL FROM SCREENSHOTS, VOICE, OR CSV • Import chart screenshots and confirm every field the AI proposes • Keep pre-trade, entry, management, exit, and confirmation screenshots together • Dictate a note, review the transcript, and approve suggested emotions or deviations • Map generic broker CSV columns with date, decimal, and currency controls FIND THE PATTERNS IN YOUR OWN RECORDS • Track rule adherence, expectancy, profit factor, R multiples, drawdown, and percentage return • Review results by setup, asset class, market, account, direction, session, emotion, and weekday • Journal stocks, cryptocurrency, forex, futures, options, indices, and commodities • Keep different currencies separate so unrelated amounts are never silently added together • Get sample-size warnings before reading too much into a small history PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your journal works without an account and is stored locally on your device. Hide monetary values with one tap, blur screenshots in privacy mode, lock the app with device authentication, export a readable local copy, or delete everything from Profile. Content submitted to an optional AI feature is sent over an encrypted connection and is never sent to advertising or product analytics. TRADER JOURNAL PRO Trader Journal Pro is available as an auto-renewing weekly or yearly subscription. Pro unlocks unlimited trades, screenshot extraction, voice journaling, CSV import, advanced weekly reviews, PDF export, custom rules, and multiple screenshots. Prices and any trial terms are shown by the App Store before purchase. Subscriptions renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your App Store account settings. Restore Purchases is available in the app. Trader Journal is a journaling and self-review tool. It does not provide investment advice, trading signals, recommendations, or guarantees. Trading involves risk, including possible loss of capital. Historical patterns do not guarantee future results.
