OnDeck Trading Journal — Features

Everything your trading journal should tell you.

The OnDeck Trading Journal is a trading journal that computes everything in your browser. Drop in a broker CSV and get the numbers, the curve, the calendar and the leaks — without your trade history ever leaving your machine. Here is exactly what it does today, and what is still in build.

The journal

The numbers, the curve, the leaks.

Everything in this section is live in the free Journal today — no account, no upload, nothing held back for a paid tier.

The headline numbers Live

Net realized P&L, win rate, profit factor, expectancy per trade, average win and average loss, biggest win and loss, max drawdown, win and loss streaks, best and worst days. The truth about a book, on one screen.

Equity curve Live

Your cumulative realized P&L with every closed trade in order — hover any day to inspect it, with the peak and the drawdown marked, not hidden.

P&L calendar Live

One cell per trading day on a heatmap, plus net by month. Green paid you, red cost you — the shape of your year at a glance.

Where it leaks Live

Top underlyings against the leaks, calls vs puts, options vs shares vs crypto, trade-size distribution, and a plain-English story in the numbers. Most traders do not need more trades — they need to see the leak.

Options pairing, done right Live

Fills pair into round trips with full contract identity — underlying, strike, expiry, call or put — so spreads, rolls and expiries book the way your broker actually cleared them. This is the math most journals botch; it is the math our own public ledger runs on.

Honest import report Live

Every CSV gets a receipt. Rows that are not trades — deposits, dividends — are quarantined and listed with the reason. Nothing is silently dropped and nothing is guessed.

Reports

Your data, turned into reports.

A journal that only stores trades is a filing cabinet. The Journal reads your book back to you — what is making money, what is costing money, and what to fix first. The first two reports are sections of the live scorecard view today, and the AI read narrates them; the per-setup reports and the formal score ride on trade tagging, so they land with Pro.

The edge report Live

The Breakdown section of your scorecard: what is actually making you money — net P&L by underlying, by calls vs puts, by options vs shares vs crypto, and across the trade-size distribution. It reads straight off your fills — no tagging needed — so you can see which parts of your book carry the rest.

The mistakes & leaks report Live

The Edge & leaks section: the mirror image — the symbols, styles and sizes that cost you, your worst day on the tile and every red day on the calendar, your loss streaks. Your recurring mistakes, priced in dollars instead of remembered in vibes. Most traders find their fix here, not in a new strategy.

The AI read Live · Free

The Briefing Pack and the bring-your-own-key review narrate the reports in plain English: what you are doing right, where you leak, and the three fixes that matter — written by your own AI, from numbers computed on your machine.

Per-setup reports Pro waitlist

Slice the edge and leaks reports by your own setups — this entry model pays, that one only feels like it does. Per-setup reporting depends on trade tagging, which is a Pro item, so this report arrives with it — waitlist only, no date promised.

The consistency score Pro waitlist

One number that tracks whether you are trading your plan or drifting from it, built on your tagged setups and your own rules of engagement. It needs tagging to mean anything, so it ships with Pro rather than as a free gimmick today.

Playbooks

Your setups, named and measured.

Every trader swears they trade two or three setups. A playbook is one of those setups written down — entry, exit, and the rules in between — so trades can be tagged to it and judged against it. The playbook system is a Pro item: it is on the waitlist, not live, and it is what powers the per-setup reports above.

Define the playbook Pro waitlist

Write each setup the way you actually trade it, in your own words — what qualifies, where it fails, when you stand down. No house templates imposed on your process.

Tag the trades Pro waitlist

Attach closed trades to the playbook they belonged to — including the honest ones you took off-plan. Tagging is what turns one blended scorecard into a true read on each setup.

Per-playbook reports Pro waitlist

The edge and leaks reports recompute per playbook: win rate, expectancy and drawdown for each setup on its own. Keep the setups that pay, repair the ones that leak, retire the ones that only feel good.

A public playbook library Roadmap

A later phase, not in build: a library of playbooks traders can browse and adapt to their own book. It is on the roadmap and mentioned only so the direction is on the record — nothing about it is promised or dated.

Who it’s for

Built for wherever your book is right now.

Traders open a journal for different reasons. Same engine, same free tier — what changes is the question you are asking it.

Down and leaking

You are red and you cannot point to exactly why. The leaks report prices the bleed by symbol, style and size, so the first fix is obvious — and the report is free.

Developing, with a strategy to sharpen

You have an approach that feels close. The headline numbers, the curve and the calendar show whether the edge is real or just one good month — before you size it up.

Profitable, protecting an edge

You are green and intend to stay that way. Streaks, drawdown and the size distribution keep you honest about whether the edge is holding or quietly decaying.

Trading a prop-firm account

Your capital comes with written rules — drawdown limits, daily loss caps. The Journal computes the calendar and drawdown numbers from your own CSV export — realized, closed-trade figures, checked by you against your firm's rules (your firm may measure differently, open trades included), with no account login shared with anyone.

The AI coach

Numbers say what happened. A coach says what it means.

Connect your own AI — or take the pack to it. Both routes are live and free today; the one-click house review is a Pro waitlist item.

AI Briefing Pack Live · Free

One click builds a single file: your full stats digest plus a coach’s brief — what you are doing right, where you leak, your discipline signals, and the three fixes that matter. Paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini — any AI you already use.

Bring-your-own-AI review Live · Free

Paste your own Anthropic or OpenAI key and the review runs right in the page — browser to provider, directly. Your key and your numbers never touch our servers; the key lives in tab memory unless you choose to remember it on your own device.

House AI Review Pro waitlist

The same five-section review with no key of your own — one click, our key behind the scenes. Part of Pro when it opens.

Your data

Private by architecture, not by promise.

The usual journal model stores your entire trade history on the vendor's servers. The Journal computes on your machine — there is no server copy of your trades to leak, sell, or subpoena.

Computed in your browser Live

No account, no upload, no broker login. Your CSV is parsed in the browser tab you opened, and closing the tab ends the session. The one exception: an AI key is kept on your device only if you tick "remember" — your choice, never ours. That is the whole architecture.

Broker CSV adapters Rolling out

Robinhood activity exports are supported today. Adapters for Webull, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, E*TRADE, tastytrade, IBKR, thinkorswim and Coinbase are rolling out — each held to the same import-receipt standard before it ships.

Broker sync Pro waitlist

Read-only sync through SnapTrade is in build for Pro: sign in at your own broker (OAuth-style), we never see your password, and sync stays opt-in — the CSV path never goes away. It is not live yet; the waitlist hears first.

Coming with Pro

On the waitlist, not on your bill.

Pro is $12 a month when it opens — and it is not on sale yet. Nothing below is charged, promised with a date, or quietly paywalled out of the free tier.

Playbooks & setup tagging Pro waitlist

The full system — defining your setups, tagging trades to them, and per-playbook reports — is laid out in the Playbooks section above. It opens with Pro; the free scorecard never depends on it.

Shareable stat cards Pro waitlist

Your profit factor, win rate and net on one clean card, generated on your device. You will share it where you like — it will exist only when you make it.

Every adapter, day one Pro waitlist

Pro will get each new broker adapter the day it ships, plus read-only sync when it lands — see pricing for the honest live-vs-waitlist table.

Your numbers are one CSV away.

Free forever, no account, nothing uploaded. Run your book through the same engine that keeps our public record.
