Trades arrive on their own
A journal is linked to accounts: closed MetaTrader 5, MetaTrader 4 and exchange trades land in it automatically. For accounts that are not connected there is a manual journal.
A trading journal that fills itself
Trades arrive in the journal automatically from MetaTrader 5, MetaTrader 4 and crypto exchanges — no exports or spreadsheets. You add the setup, emotions, execution score and mistake; the journal calculates win rate, profit factor and R and shows what breaking your plan costs you.

Was es kann
Everything for trade review in one journal
Review every trade
Session, setup, BIAS, entry model, expected RR, risk, emotions before and after, plan adherence, execution score, mistake, comment and screenshot links.
Results in R
R is measured from the stop loss: how many risk units you made or lost. Average R, total R and drawdown in R show trading quality regardless of lot size.
Discipline review
Share of on-plan trades, execution score, the cost of violations in money, recurring mistakes and «Plan vs Fact» for each trade.
Breakdowns
Symbols, hours, weekdays, sessions, setups and trade duration — where you make money and where you give it back.
Risk and Monte Carlo
Probability of a 10, 25 and 50% drawdown from your history and a Monte Carlo of R over 10–200 future trades. These are models, not forecasts: they show the spread of your statistics.
So funktioniert es
In vier Schritten starten
Connect an account
The Davinchu Trade Monitor EA for MetaTrader 5 or MetaTrader 4, or a read-only exchange API key — 5–10 minutes.
Create a journal
Pick the accounts whose trades go into it, or start a manual journal. Set up columns and your own lists.
Review trades
Mark whether the trade followed the plan, score the execution and tag the mistake — changes save automatically.
Read the findings
«Review» shows the cost of violations and your most frequent mistake; «What to improve» sums up the key findings.
Where trades come from
| Source | What goes into the journal |
|---|---|
| MetaTrader 5 | every closed trade via the Davinchu Trade Monitor EA, including the terminal history |
| MetaTrader 4 | every closed trade via the Davinchu Trade Monitor EA for MT4, including the history from the terminal's «Account History» tab |
| Bybit | USDT and USDC linear futures and spot trades, up to two years of history |
| HTX | USDT-M perpetual futures trades from the moment of connection |
| Manual entry | symbol, side, volume, prices and time; stop loss, take profit, commission and swap are optional |
Duplicates are filtered out by trade ticket. In a journal linked to accounts only the review fields are editable — prices and results come from the account. Manual trades live in their own journal and do not affect account statistics or rankings.
Trade review fields
| Field | What to record |
|---|---|
| Session / Killzone | Asia, London, New York, LO KZ, NY KZ or your own |
| Setup | SMC / OB, FVG, breakout, level bounce, trend, news or your own |
| BIAS and Entry Model | bullish, bearish or neutral; the entry model in your own words |
| Expected RR and risk, % | what you planned before the entry |
| Followed the plan? | yes or no |
| Execution | a score from 1 to 5 |
| Mistake | early entry, late entry, no stop loss, moved the stop, early exit, held a loser, risk exceeded, off-plan, FOMO, revenge trading or your own |
| Emotions before and after | calm, confident, impatient, fear, greed, FOMO, tired; after — calm, satisfied, euphoric, regret, anger, disappointed, relieved |
| Comment, screenshot, entry markup | text and links |
Changes are saved automatically. The journal table has 28 columns: date, symbol, entry, exit and result are mandatory, the rest are optional. Columns and lists are stored on the server, so the journal looks the same on your phone and your computer.
Metrics the journal calculates
| Metric | How it is calculated |
|---|---|
| Win rate | share of winning trades; break-even trades are excluded |
| Profit factor | gross profit / gross loss |
| Trade R | (exit − entry) / (entry − stop loss) with the sign of the result; no stop, no R |
| Average R, total R | mean and sum of R across trades |
| Payoff | average win / average loss |
| Expectancy | win rate × average win − (1 − win rate) × average loss |
| Max drawdown | peak to trough of the cumulative result — in money, in R and in percent when the starting capital is set |
| Streaks | longest winning and losing streaks |
Alongside: periods (today, yesterday, 7, 30 and 90 days, all time), monthly returns and trade type — scalp under 15 minutes, intraday under a day, swing under a week, longer is a position trade. Eight filters — period, account, symbol, side, setup, session, result and discipline — recalculate the whole screen.
The «Review» tab
A trade counts as reviewed once you mark whether it followed the plan and score the execution. The tab shows:
- the share of reviewed trades and on-plan trades, the average execution score;
- the cost of violations — total losses on off-plan trades;
- on-plan versus off-plan trades: win rate, result, expectancy, average R;
- the ten most costly mistakes with their result in money and in R;
- «Plan vs Fact» — expected and actual R for each trade;
- the review queue and «What to improve» findings.
An AI review of a single trade uses one request from your plan's monthly quota.
Public journal link
You can share a journal: the link shows statistics and trades — symbol, side, volume, prices, stop and take profit, result, R and time. Your notes (setups, emotions, comments, screenshots, tags) and the account number are not shared — the server strips them, not the page layout. Revoking disables the link for good; publishing again creates a new address.
Export and broker accounts
- CSV export — «Settings → Data → Trade journal»: all trades with prices, result, commissions and time.
- Interactive Brokers and T-Bank accounts — in the «Investments» section; trades from these brokers in the journal are planned.
FAQ
Fragen und Antworten
Is the trading journal free?
Yes. The Free plan includes one journal and up to two accounts with no time limit. Plus gives 3 journals, Pro 10, Elite unlimited. After you confirm your email you get 14 days of Pro for free.
Do I have to enter trades manually?
No, not if the account is connected: MetaTrader 5, MetaTrader 4 and exchange trades arrive in the journal on their own. The manual journal is for trades from accounts that are not connected.
How does the journal calculate R?
R is the trade result in units of risk: the distance from entry to exit divided by the distance from entry to the stop loss, with the sign of the result. Without a stop loss the trade has no R.
Can I keep several journals?
Yes, for example one for a prop challenge and one for a personal account. A journal can be renamed, duplicated or archived — an archived journal is read-only and still counts towards the plan limit.
Will others see my notes if I share a journal?
No. The public link shows statistics and trades; the server never returns setups, emotions, comments, screenshots, tags or the account number.
Can I export my trades?
Yes, to CSV: «Settings → Data → Trade journal». It exports all your trades with prices, result, commissions and time.
