Free online trading journal

The fastest way to improve as a trader is to write every trade down and review it. This trading journal keeps your log privately in your browser — no sign-up, nothing uploaded — and turns it into the numbers that matter: win rate, average win and loss, expectancy, profit factor, maximum drawdown and your longest losing streak, plus an equity curve. Tag trades by setup to find out which strategies actually make you money, and export everything to CSV for Excel or Google Sheets.

How to use it

  1. Enter each closed trade with its quantity, entry, exit and charges.
  2. Add a setup name and a short note.
  3. Review the stats weekly and filter by setup to compare strategies.
  4. Export a CSV backup regularly.

Example

After 40 trades you find a 45% win rate, an average win of ₹2,400 and an average loss of ₹1,500. Expectancy is 0.45 × 2,400 − 0.55 × 1,500 = +₹255 per trade and the profit factor is about1.31 — a modest edge. Filtering by setup shows the gap-fill trades lose money while breakouts carry the whole result, so you drop the gap-fills. Check each new trade's numbers first with therisk-reward calculator andbrokerage calculator.

Frequently asked questions

Where are my trades saved?
Only in your browser, on this device (local storage). Nothing is uploaded to any server. Clearing your browser data deletes the journal, so export a CSV backup now and then — you can import it again on any device.
What is expectancy?
Your average profit per trade after counting losses: total P&L ÷ number of trades. Positive expectancy over 30–50+ trades suggests your approach has an edge; negative means it is losing money on average.
What is a profit factor?
Gross profit ÷ gross loss. Above 1 means winners outweigh losers; 1.5–2 is considered good for most strategies. Below 1 means the strategy is losing.
What is maximum drawdown?
The biggest drop in your running P&L from a peak to a later low. It shows the worst losing stretch you have had to sit through — and helps you size positions so a similar stretch doesn’t hurt your account badly.
What should I write in the notes?
Why you took the trade, your setup, how you felt and what you would do differently. Reviewing notes every week is where most of the learning from a journal comes from.
