Trade Journaling Just Got Better

You can write in as much detail as you want about how your trade went, set-up, strategy, you name it! Whether you're breaking down a trade or reflecting on the entire day, you can easily document your trading performance.

There are two ways to journal:
– Trade Notes let you select a specific trade from the trade log and add detailed comments.
– Daily Notes are best for reflecting on your overall trading day e.g. notes on your trade plan, market conditions, or trading psychology.

You don’t have to worry about character limits cutting you off mid thought. Your notes are kept safe with our auto-save feature. When you are not using it, you can hide the Journal Editor for a cleaner view of your performance metrics. Can’t remember which day you wrote a daily note? Just check the PnL calendar, there is now a small pencil icon appears any day you've journaled.

Attach as many screenshots as you need for each trade or trade day. Whether it’s chart setups, broker fills, or daily summaries they can all be add right alongside your trade notes.

You can now breeze through your journal using your arrow keys, perfect for reviewing trades, flipping through your notes, or editing quickly. Perfect for adding notes quickly or adjusting trade tags across different trades within a trading session or across different trade days.

To keep your concentration in one place, we have added the key metrics you need right in the Trade journal. These built-in trade analysis tools make it easier to spot what’s working and refine your strategy without switching tabs.

With more people trading from their phones, it was only right to ditch our old table view on mobile and opt for something more streamlined. Now, there is an expandable trade view where you can edit tags, review metrics, and write notes. You can still access the trade journal editor on the go, simply select ‘Details’ and you will have access to the trade metrics, note taking, and tags. No more pinching, scrolling, or fighting with tables on your phone.

We know journaling can sometimes feel like a chore but, with these updates TraderWaves helps you log faster, review more clearly, and stay consistent. Whether you're at your desk or on the move it’s easier now to capture not just your trades but your trading psychology too all in one place.
