Trading journal · Performance analytics
Know your trades. Understand your patterns. Improve your process.
Most traders repeat the same mistakes because they never measure them. TradeNotes is a trading journal where you record every decision and see, in plain numbers, what it cost or earned you.
Free plan with 50 trades. No card required.

How it works
- 01
Log the trade
Direction, size, entry, stop and exit — including partial exits, fees and forex lots. About a minute.
- 02
Write down why
Your setup, what you were thinking before and after, how you felt, and any mistakes you made.
- 03
Read the pattern
Your results by strategy, session, instrument, weekday, mistake and emotion — with honest warnings when the sample is too small.
What you get today
Everything in this list is built, and all of it is in the Free plan.
- Eight core metrics
- Net P&L, win rate, profit factor, expectancy, average win and loss, average R and maximum drawdown — all after fees.
- Equity curve
- Cumulative result trade by trade, with your longest winning and losing streaks.
- Risk in R
- Record a stop and every result is also shown in units of what you planned to risk.
- Mistake and emotion tags
- See what trades tagged “Moved stop” or “FOMO” actually added up to.
- Filters everywhere
- Narrow the dashboard, analytics and journal by date, account, strategy, instrument, direction, tag and session.
- Deeper analytics
- Drawdown and recovery, the spread of your results in R, which weekday and hour you trade best, results by time held, and what each mistake cost.
- A review list
- Open trades, your largest loss and your costliest mistake, surfaced on the dashboard.
- Explanations you can switch off
- Every figure links to a plain-English guide. Experienced traders can hide them.
- Mobile quick-log
- Six fields and big buttons for logging a trade from your phone. It starts from your last trade and can sit on your home screen.
- Read-only share links
- Share your win rate, profit factor and the shape of your equity curve through a link you can revoke. Money amounts stay hidden unless you choose to show them, and it never shows notes, instruments, account names, your email or screenshots.
Premium adds strategy comparison and a manual backtest log for hypothetical trades, kept apart from your real results. Look around the demo or compare plans.
Built for traders who are still learning
Every number comes with an explanation of what it means and when it is too early to trust it. Forex traders get lots and quote-currency conversion out of the box; futures, stocks, options and crypto are supported too.

- It doesn't give signals, advice or predictions.
- It doesn't connect to your broker or place trades.
- It doesn't promise that journaling will make you profitable — it shows you what you actually did.
