About

TradersPivot

Read full description

TradersPivot is a private trading journal and analytics workspace built for prop-firm futures traders. REVIEW WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED Log trades manually or import supported statements, then study performance across accounts, sessions, symbols, and time. Clear summaries, an equity curve, a P&L calendar, and recent trade history help turn scattered records into a useful review process. THE BRIEF Open your daily Brief for a plain-language recap based on your own recorded trades, accounts, and discipline data. REFLECT WITH PIVOT Pivot is a private reflection space that helps you notice patterns in your own trades and written reflections. Optional AI processing is used only after explicit consent and is designed for reflection, not recommendations. BUILD A CONSISTENT PROCESS Use State of Mind entries, routine checklists, and discipline history to record the context around each session. Review performance alongside the behavior that produced it. PRACTICAL TRADING TOOLS Use position-size, futures tick-value, options P&L, Greeks, and payoff tools without placing a trade or connecting a brokerage account. TradersPivot does not execute trades, provide market signals, predict prices, or offer financial or investment advice. Trading involves substantial risk, and past performance does not predict future results. A TradersPivot Pro subscription is required for paid features. Monthly and yearly plans renew automatically unless canceled in Apple Account settings at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription and restore purchases through the app. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
