The only free trading journal that actually shows you your edge.
TradeStack is a free trading journal built for day traders, futures traders, forex traders, and crypto traders. Import your trades and instantly see your win rate, expectancy, and profit factor, so you can stop guessing and start trading your edge.
Join the traders who actually review their trades.
Imports from the brokers you already use
Any broker that exports a CSV works. We detect the format automatically.
Drop your broker CSV or Excel export here to check compatibility. It never leaves your browser.
Most traders blow up because they never review their own trades.
Screenshots in a notes app. Numbers scattered across spreadsheets. You can't remember which setups actually make money, so the same mistakes keep costing you. Without real data, every loss feels random and every win feels lucky.
TradeStack turns your trade history into a clear, honest edge.
Built for day traders, futures traders, forex traders, and crypto traders. Drop in a CSV and we detect the format automatically. In seconds you get the metrics pros actually use, plus a journal that ties the numbers back to your decisions.
