Journal

Overview

The Journal is a chronological log of your trading activity. Each trading day (or week) gets its own card with performance stats, a running P&L chart, and a note area for your own observations.

Days and Weeks view

Use the Days / Weeks toggle in the top-right of the content area to switch between viewing one card per trading day or one card per trading week.

• Days — each card represents a single calendar day
• Weeks — each card represents a full trading week with a P&L bar chart per day of week

The list is sorted most-recent-first and loads more records automatically as you scroll down.

Record cards

Each card shows:

• Date / period header — date (or week range), total P&L for the period, and the ⋮ menu for export
• Stats row — Win Rate, R:R, Profit Factor, Total Trades, Total Volume, Commissions & Fees, Avg Hold Time
• Chart — in Days view: running cumulative P&L across the day's trades; in Weeks view: a bar chart showing P&L for each day of the week
• Top trades — a compact list of up to 3 notable trades: symbol, side, and P&L. Click Show More to see all trades for that day on a dedicated detail page.
• Note — a text area for your personal journal entry

Writing notes

Click anywhere in the note area to start typing. A note can be up to 200 characters.

Templates: click Add Template (the + button in the note header) to pre-fill the note with one of your saved notes templates. You can also create a new template directly from the dropdown.

Click Save to persist the note. Click Cancel to discard changes. Once saved, the note appears on every card that matches the date/week, including in search results.

To delete a note, open the ⋮ menu on the card and select Delete Note.

Exporting a card

Open the ⋮ menu in the top-right of any card:

• Copy PNG — copies the card as an image to your clipboard
• Download PNG — saves the card as a .png file
• Download PDF — saves the card as a .pdf file

The exported image includes the date header, stats, chart, top trades, and your note.

Adding a record for a day without trades

Click Add Record to create an empty journal entry for any date — even days with no trades. This is useful for writing notes on rest days, market observations, or anything else you want to log.

A date picker opens. Select a day (or a week in Weeks mode) and the new empty record appears in the list, ready for a note.

Search

The Search by notes input in the right sidebar (or top-right on narrower screens) searches the full text of all your saved notes in real time.

Results appear in a dropdown with a snippet of matching text highlighted. Click any result to jump directly to that record in the list.

Calendar

The mini calendar in the right sidebar shows a heatmap of trading days colored by P&L (green = profitable, red = losing). Click any date to scroll the main list to that day's card. In Weeks mode, click a week to jump to that week's card.

The calendar is hidden when the screen is narrower than 900px; in that case a calendar button appears near the Add Record button to open it as a popover.

Detailed view

From any card, click Show More to open the full detail page. In Days view it shows all trades for that day; in Weeks view it shows all trades for that week. The detail page includes a trades table with the same columns as the main Trades page, plus a running P&L chart for the selected period.
