Short answer

Export your FTMO platform accounts trade history from MetaTrader or cTrader history export from the challenge account as CSV, HTML or XLSX, then drop it into TradeStack. The importer recognises the FTMO platform accounts layout, builds a daily P&L calendar and calculates win rate, profit factor and expectancy for free.

Exporting your FTMO platform accounts trade history

FTMO platform accounts keeps its trade export under MetaTrader or cTrader history export from the challenge account. Choose the widest date range you can and download the CSV, HTML or XLSX file. You do not need to reorder columns, rename headers or delete rows first — TradeStack fingerprints the header row and maps the fields itself.

What the importer does with a FTMO platform accounts file

One quirk worth knowing: evaluation accounts export like any MetaTrader account, so challenge progress is trackable day by day. That matters because a journal that pairs fills incorrectly will report a win rate and average win that do not match your statement. After import you can open any trade, edit it, add a screenshot, tag a playbook and write the note that explains the decision.
