Any broker’s export
Section titled “Any broker’s export”A CSV, XLSX, HTML or PDF statement of any broker or platform: the AI maps its columns onto fills (or the column names do, without the AI), you check the first fills and trades in a preview, and the mapping is remembered, so the next statement of the same format imports at once. Account numbers never leave the server unmasked. This covers the platforms below the list, migrations from other journals, MetaTrader statements and the exports of crypto exchanges. Plan: every plan (Free one file a day), one AI answer per new format. How →
Crypto exchanges
Section titled “Crypto exchanges”Kraken, Binance, Bybit and Coinbase by a read-only API key, their spot trades and perpetuals with funding; their trade exports recognised without the AI. Quantities with decimals, results in dollars, the leverage and the liquidation price of a perpetual. Eighteen more exchanges connect the same way: Binance US, BingX, Bitget, Bitstamp, BloFin, Crypto.com, Delta Exchange, Deribit, Gate, Gemini, HTX, Hyperliquid (by the wallet’s address, no key), KuCoin, MEXC, OKX, Phemex, Upbit and WOO X. Plan: the exports on every plan (Free one file a day), the API keys from Trader. Crypto →
File imports
Section titled “File imports”For platforms without an API for read-only access, TakeJournal reads the files the platform exports. An import never doubles a trade: the same fill imported twice is recognised. Plan: every plan, Free one file a day.
- Interactive Brokers — a Flex Query (XML or CSV): stocks, options, futures and options on futures, with expiries and assignments. How →
- NinjaTrader — the Executions export (Control Center → Trades/Executions → export). How →
- Tradovate — the fills or the orders CSV. How →
- R|Trader Pro — the order history export. How →
- Bookmap — the orders log, with the account names Bookmap uses. How →
Every import ends with a report: what was read, what was already known, which rows could not be read and why, and a per-day reconciliation against the file. Import reports →
By hand
Section titled “By hand”Any trade can be typed in: the open, the close, the fees; further fills later. Trades typed in live on manual accounts, on every plan; a manual account counts towards the account limit like a synced one. Trades by hand →
Planned
Section titled “Planned”Stock brokers are coming through SnapTrade: Robinhood, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, E*TRADE, Webull, moomoo, Public, eToro, DEGIRO, Questrade, Wealthsimple and others, read-only; you sign in to your broker in SnapTrade’s window, and the trades, options, dividends, deposits and withdrawals sync once a day. Plan: Trader and above.
The brokers through SnapTrade (30): AJ Bell, Alpaca, Alpaca Paper, BMO InvestorLine, Bux, Charles Schwab, Chase, CIBC Investor’s Edge, CommSec, DEGIRO, E*TRADE, Empower, eToro, Fidelity, moomoo, Public, Questrade, Robinhood, Stake Australia, TD Direct Investing, TradeStation, TradeStation Sim, Tradier, Upstox, Vanguard, Wealthsimple, Webull Canada, Webull US, Wells Fargo and Zerodha.
A sync of Tradovate and NinjaTrader web depends on NinjaTrader’s partner programme, which is closed to new vendors at the moment; NinjaTrader 8 Desktop has the add-on above, the web platforms the file imports until it reopens. Match-Trader’s closed positions import as a known format; DXtrade and TradeLocker statements are coming as known formats; until then they go through the mapped import like any other file. Ask for your platform at support@takejournal.com.
Forex and CFDs
Section titled “Forex and CFDs”MetaTrader 4 statements, MetaTrader 5 history reports and cTrader’s history import as known formats, with the lots, the swap apart from the commission and the balance rows into the ledger; forex pairs, metals and CFDs are typed in by hand too, with their lots, pips and swaps. Plan: trades by hand and the statements on every plan (Free one file a day). Forex and CFDs → · MetaTrader and cTrader →
