Your trades, by day
Press JOURNAL, and your closed trades appear by day, on a month calendar, with a summary, the chosen day's trades, a per-profile table, and your notes. The arrows step through the months, and TODAY comes back to now. The journal holds only closed trades, so open positions are not here.
Filters
Profile, Session and Side show only the trades under one profile, in one session, or on one side. Mode chooses the journal: real money, or paper. They are never mixed.
The summary strip
The summary strip covers the month and the filters you chose: the net result, the gross, the fees paid, and the number of trades, the share of winning trades, the days with a net gain, and the best and worst day.
Calendar and day
Each day on the calendar shows its net result and trade count, and the WEEK column totals each week. Click a day to see its trades: time, symbol, side, source, profile, session, shares, entry, exit, gross, fees and net. Every trade shows its gross and its fees, so the net can be checked against them.
By profile
BY PROFILE shows results per profile, for the day, the week or the month. Show lists every profile, or only the winners or losers, split at your cut percentage. Double-click a row to filter the journal to that profile. Use it to compare profiles for the day, the week or the month.
Notes
And the notes box keeps what happened today, in your own words. SAVE NOTE keeps it. POP TRADES and POP NOTES open them in windows of their own. Each day has its own notes box, so nothing mixes across days.
