Keep the record. Find the patterns.
The useful part of a trading journal is the context you can return to. EntryBench keeps the setup, direction, session, risk, result, targets, and reflection together under the right portfolio.
Open the trading journalLog a trade without losing the reason for it.
- 01
Choose the portfolio
Use a Demo portfolio for paper trades, replay results, and backtest imports. Use a Live portfolio to record actual trades. Each portfolio has its own entries and performance view.
- 02
Select your playbook
Pick a strategy from your saved playbooks instead of retyping a setup name. Create a playbook in the entry form when you need a new set of rules.
- 03
Record risk and execution
Choose a dollar risk or a percentage of the balance recorded at entry. Add actual entry, exit, net result, mindset, and notes. The saved balance snapshot keeps the original risk basis intact.
- 04
Save a target plan
Add up to five profitable, ordered take-profit prices with percentages totaling 100% of the original position. Plans stay separate from what actually filled.
Review the record from several angles.
P&L and R
Read monetary results alongside R-multiples derived from recorded net result and risk. Entries with unknown risk need that field completed before R is useful.
Drawdown and calendar
Inspect the recorded equity path and peak-to-trough P&L drawdown. Use the monthly calendar to review days with completed entries.
Setups and sessions
Compare strategy and session summaries within the selected portfolio and period. Instrument results reflect your journal, not live forex quotes.
Process context
Revisit emotional flags and reflections. The process score describes tags and notes you recorded; it is not a prediction of trading success.
Keep your data portable.
Import completed trades with a journal CSV or a supported TradingView List of Trades export. Export the loaded journal records when you want a copy. EntryBench exports target plans and risk snapshots alongside trade fields.
For a large history, note the current limits: imports accept up to 500 completed trades and 2 MB per file. Journal retrieval currently shows the latest 5,000 entries in a portfolio.
