GridTrade is the trading journal for day traders running multiple funded accounts in parallel. Most journals solve "log my trades" β and stop there. GridTrade was built for the actual problem: making visible the emotional and behavioural patterns that decide whether you pass your prop firm evaluation or not. WHAT MAKES GRIDTRADE DIFFERENT β’ Per-trade emotion tracking (1β5) Every trade gets a structured emotion rating β not a free-text note, but a filterable value. After 30β50 trades the pattern is undeniable: your high-emotion trades cost you money. β’ 9 combinable filters Date, time window, weekday, asset, side, outcome, emotion, setup, setup validity β all stackable at once. "What's my win rate on NQ longs at the NY open at emotion 1β2?" One click. β’ Native multi-account Multiple prop firm evaluations plus your live account in parallel β each with its own balance, equity curve and trade list. But unified analytics across all of them. β’ Setup playbook with live stats Define the setups you actually trade. Each gets a live win rate and expectancy. Most traders discover here that 1β2 of their favourite setups have negative expectancy. β’ Trading calendar Every day a coloured box: green, red, grey. You spot drawdown streaks at a glance β before they cost you the account. β’ Automatic R-multiple R is calculated automatically from entry, stop, exit and position size. Tick values for NQ, ES, MNQ, MES, RTY, GC, CL, BTC, EUR/USD and many more are preloaded. Custom tickers with custom tick values supported. β’ Mistakes catalog Revenge trading, FOMO entry, stop moved, overtrading after a win β tag it, filter it, see the pattern. β’ Screenshots & notes Attach an annotated chart per trade. Daily bias and notes tracked separately. YOUR DATA Hosted in Germany (Hetzner Frankfurt) and the EU (Supabase, Ireland). GDPR-compliant with row-level security per user. Nobody but you reads your trades β not even us. Export as JSON/CSV anytime. IMPORTANT β WHAT GRIDTRADE IS NOT GridTrade is a journaling and analytics tool. It is explicitly NOT a broker, NOT a trading platform and NOT a signals service. β’ GridTrade does not execute trades and is not connected to any broker β’ GridTrade does not provide trading recommendations or financial advice β’ GridTrade is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any prop firm β’ Trading carries substantial risk, including total loss of capital All trades are entered manually β by design. The 60 seconds you spend logging a trade ARE the reflection moment. There is no broker integration and no auto-import. SUBSCRIPTION GridTrade Pro is available as an in-app subscription. All features are included in a single tier β no Pro/Premium ladder, no upsells.
