Reason, setup, screenshot and psychology are visually connected.

Every closed trade is synced within 60 seconds with entry price, exit price, lot size, commission, swap, and full P/L data.

The journal captures a chart screenshot at the exact moment of close so every trade keeps its full visual context.

Track win rate, profit factor, drawdown, average R-multiple, best trade, worst trade, and trading streaks automatically.

Review equity curves, daily P/L heatmaps, and performance breakdowns by symbol, day, and trading session.

Small-spread, weaker patience, and only late-session behavior.

Good rule quality and better patience, but exits still leave money on the table.

The journal spots repeated mistakes and starts rebuilding confidence step by step.

Clean process, clear edge, and a strong review habit that protects long-term performance.

Spot when performance drops, where boredom trades appear, and which sessions produce cleaner execution.

Separate your best symbols and markets from low-quality noise before adding more risk.

Compare actual exits against best potential outcomes to reveal early exits and poor trade management.

Group repeated behavior leaks so the trader can see what costs the most money.

Measure whether the trade followed the plan before judging only the profit or loss.

Keep session reflections beside the numbers so progress becomes visible over time.

Create structure before bad habits become normal.

Find leaks in exits, timing, risk, and rule discipline.

Optimize the setups and sessions where the edge is strongest.

Pick the specific currencies and symbols you actually trade. The calendar then hides everything else. If you only trade EURUSD and XAUUSD, you do not need to see kiwi GDP next Tuesday.

For any event on your watchlist, enable a browser notification that fires X minutes before release. Granted permission once, the alert works even when the BrokerSift tab is in the background. In-site reminders run in parallel as a fallback.

Which strategies deserve more size, more patience, or removal?

Which mistakes repeat and how much do they cost?

Which hours, days, and conditions produce clean execution?

What one measurable behavior should improve next?

The BrokerSift Expert Advisor reads only closed deal records from your MetaTrader terminal — ticket number, symbol, entry/exit price, lot size, side, commission, swap, and profit. It also captures a chart screenshot at the moment of close. That is the entire data scope.

The EA cannot place trades, modify orders, change stop losses, withdraw funds, or read your account password. MetaTrader's security model prevents Expert Advisors from accessing the account password under any circumstances. The EA is read-only by design.

Trade data is sent from your terminal to our servers over HTTPS with TLS 1.2 or higher. Each request includes your license key for authentication, but no broker credentials, no account password, and no personal identification.

Your trade history is stored on encrypted servers in a private database. Only you can see your own trades when logged into your BrokerSift account. We do not share, sell, or publish your trading data.

You can export all your trades to CSV at any time. You can permanently delete your account and all associated data from your settings. We comply with GDPR and similar privacy regulations.

The BrokerSift Trading Journal works independently from your broker account and does not require broker API access, payment details, or login credentials. Your trading account remains fully under your control at all times.

If you have been trading for less than a year, you are in the most critical phase of your career. A journal is the difference between learning from your mistakes and repeating them for the next five years. Our journal removes the friction of manual logging so you can focus on learning, not data entry.

You have a strategy and you know your setups. But your equity curve is still flat or slowly bleeding. The BrokerSift Journal will show you exactly where your money is going. Maybe you are profitable on EURUSD but giving it all back on GBPJPY. Maybe Tuesdays kill you. Without data, you are guessing. With this journal, you know.

If you trade a funded account through FTMO, MyForexFunds, The5%ers, or another prop firm, drawdown is everything. The journal tracks your maximum drawdown in real time, calculates your profit factor against the firm's targets, and gives you a permanent independent record of your performance.

Running an EA? The journal captures every trade automatically, so you can evaluate your strategy without relying solely on MetaTrader's built-in reports. Compare different EAs side by side. See which ones perform under different market conditions.
