Rithmic trading journal
Export your Rithmic trade history from R Trader Pro > Orders/Fills > Export as CSV, then drop it into TradeStack. The importer recognises the Rithmic layout, builds a daily P&L calendar and calculates win rate, profit factor and expectancy for free.
Exporting your Rithmic trade history
Rithmic keeps its trade export under R Trader Pro > Orders/Fills > Export. Choose the widest date range you can and download the CSV 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 Rithmic file
One quirk worth knowing: fill-level rows are matched FIFO into completed trades. 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.
Columns TradeStack looks for in a Rithmic export
Detection is header-based. If your file's header row contains any one of these column combinations, the Rithmic layout is recognised automatically and the remaining fields are mapped by name:
qty filled + fill pricebuy/sell + qty filled + order number
Column names are matched case-insensitively and extra columns are kept, so a renamed or re-ordered export still imports. If none of the combinations match, the file falls back to the universal mapper, which needs at minimum a date column, a symbol column and either a P&L column or entry and exit prices.
Prop firms that run on Rithmic
If you are trading a funded or evaluation account on Rithmic, the same export feeds your rule tracking — daily loss, drawdown and consistency all read off the imported trades.
Metrics you get from Rithmic trades
- Daily P&L calendar with the dollar result printed on each day
- Win rate, average win, average loss and profit factor
- Expectancy per trade and a running equity curve
- Stats per instrument and per holding time
- Consistency %, which prop firms check before paying out
New to the terminology? Profit factor, Expectancy, R multiple, Drawdown.
Who this is for
Rithmic is used mainly by low-latency futures traders on Rithmic-backed prop accounts, trading futures. If that is you, the fastest useful review loop is a weekly import: export the week, import it, and read P&L by session and by setup rather than by single trade.
Frequently asked
How do I export trades from Rithmic?
Open R Trader Pro > Orders/Fills > Export and download the CSV file. Drop that file straight into TradeStack — the importer detects the Rithmic column layout, so there is no template to fill in.
Is the Rithmic journal free?
Yes. TradeStack is free, including unlimited CSV imports, the daily P&L calendar, playbooks and every analytics report.
Does it handle Rithmic fees and commissions?
Yes. Where Rithmic reports fees in a separate column, they are netted into realized P&L so your journal matches your statement.
Can I edit trades after importing?
Yes. Every imported trade stays editable, and the original columns from your export are preserved so nothing is lost.
