Most traders know their account balance, but very few know which setups actually make them money and which mistakes cost them the most. TradingLog is a fast, local-first trading journal built for traders who want to track their numbers without paying a monthly subscription or linking a brokerage account. Log a trade in seconds Start with just the ticker and result, or document the full trade: entry, exit, stop loss, take profit, position size, timeframe, market trend, and custom tags. Pre-trade & exit checklists Build your own checklists for entry, trade management, and exit. Check your rules before you pull the trigger so you stop taking impulse trades. Track R-multiples and real statistics See your performance in R-multiples or your account currency (USD, EUR, GBP, CHF, JPY). Track your win rate, profit factor, average R, and performance broken down by direction, timeframe, or setup tag. Chart screenshots & trade learnings Attach chart screenshots directly to your trades and write down what went well and what went wrong. Your past learnings are collected in one place so you can review them before the next session. Your data stays on your device No account required. No cloud lock-in. Your trades are stored locally on your phone, and you can export everything as CSV or JSON anytime. Free vs. Pro • Free: Log up to 10 real trades (plus optional sample data to explore the analytics) with full access to checklists, screenshots, and statistics. • Pro (One-time purchase, no subscription): Unlimited trades and automatic or manual cloud backup (Google Drive) plus full CSV/JSON export. Works for stocks, forex, futures, options, and crypto.
