My Prop Journal v1.0: Now Out of Beta

My Prop Journal is officially out of beta. After months of development, testing, and refinement with our alpha community, we're launching version 1.0 with a free tier, full retail account support, customizable dashboards, and comprehensive trading platform integrations.

What's New in v1.0

Free Tier Available

My Prop Journal now offers a free tier alongside our paid plan. Start journaling your trades immediately without a credit card, then upgrade when you're ready for unlimited features.

Free Tier Includes:

• 1 Active Prop Account + 4 archived prop accounts
• 1 Retail Account for personal trading
• 500MB Storage for CSV files and charts
• 500 Trade Imports Per Month (resets monthly)
• 4 Playbooks Maximum to track your setups
• 1 Trade Plan for pre-market preparation
• 1 Dashboard Template for performance tracking
• 4 Strategies Per Section for entry/exit documentation
• Full Access to Core Features - Trade writeups, report cards, trade log, performance analytics

Paid Tier ($34/month):

• Unlimited Prop Accounts (active and archived)
• Unlimited Retail Accounts
• 10GB Storage
• Unlimited Trade Imports
• Unlimited Playbooks
• Unlimited Trade Plans
• 4 Dashboard Templates
• Unlimited Strategies
• Chartbooks Feature (locked on free tier)
• Premium Support

The free tier gives you everything needed to start developing as a trader. Upgrade when you need more accounts, higher storage limits, or advanced features like chartbooks.

Retail Account Support

Version 1.0 includes full retail account management alongside prop accounts. Track your Interactive Brokers margin account, your thinkorswim IRA, and your Apex evaluation all in the same journal.

Retail Account Features:

• Multiple Account Types - Individual, Joint, Trust, LLC, Corporation, Custodial
• Transaction Tracking - Deposits, withdrawals, fees, interest, platform costs
• Accurate P&L Calculations - Trading performance separate from account funding
• CSV Import Support - Lightspeed Trader, DAS Trader, thinkorswim, Interactive Brokers, and more
• Broker Logos - Visual identification for quick account recognition
• Report Cards & Writeups - Full integration with trader development tools

Retail accounts work identically to prop accounts in terms of trade tracking, writeups, and performance analysis. The only difference is how balance and P&L are calculated - retail accounts track deposits/withdrawals, while prop accounts track against profit targets and drawdown limits.

Configurable Dashboard with Templates

Build multiple dashboard layouts tailored to different aspects of your trading. Version 1.0 introduces a fully customizable dashboard system with drag-and-drop widgets, resizing, and multiple saved templates.

Dashboard Features:

• Up to 4 Dashboard Templates (1 on free tier, 4 on paid tier)
• Drag-and-Drop Arrangement - Organize widgets exactly how you want
• Resizable Widgets - Make charts larger, lists smaller, customize your view
• Add/Remove Widgets - Build from a library of 9+ dashboard components
• Account Type Filtering - View prop-only, retail-only, or combined data
• Real-Time Updates - Live data without page refreshes

Create one dashboard for pre-market prep, another for end-of-day analysis, and a third for weekly performance review. Each template saves its own layout and loads instantly when you switch.

Commission Templates & Auto-Population

Stop calculating commissions manually for every trade. Version 1.0 includes commission templates that auto-calculate and apply commissions during CSV imports and manual trade entry.

Commission Template Features:

• Symbol-Specific Rates - Different commissions per contract (ES: $2.50, CL: $1.85, etc.)
• Default Fallback Rates - Catch-all rate for contracts without specific pricing
• Auto-Application - Commissions populate automatically during imports
• Futures & Stocks Support - Per-contract, per-share, flat-rate, or tiered
• Accurate Net P&L - System calculates Gross P&L minus commissions

Additionally, prop firm account creation now auto-fills profit targets, max loss limits, and daily risk parameters based on the firm you select. Adding a new Apex or TopStep account takes seconds instead of minutes.

Comprehensive CSV Import Support

Version 1.0 supports 11 trading platforms for CSV imports across stocks and futures:

Trading Platforms:

• Trader Evolution (futures)
• NinjaTrader (futures, supports retail)
• Tradovate (futures, supports retail)
• TopstepX (futures)
• Project X (futures)
• TradingView (stocks and futures, supports retail)
• Rithmic R Trader (futures, supports retail)
• Interactive Brokers (IBKR) (stocks and futures, supports retail)
• thinkorswim (stocks and futures, supports retail)
• DAS Trader (stocks, supports retail)
• Lightspeed Trader (stocks, supports retail)

Platforms that support both prop and retail trading include an account type toggle during import. Select "Prop Account" or "Retail Account," pick the specific account, and your trades route correctly.

Options support is currently in development and will be added in an upcoming release.

Prop Firm Auto-Population

Version 1.0 includes data for 10 major prop firms with automatic account detail population:

Supported Prop Firms:

• Trade The Pool
• My Funded Futures (MFF)
• Topstep
• Top One
• Apex Trader Funding
• FundedNext
• Alpha Futures
• Take Profit Trader
• TradeDay
• Tradeify

When creating a new prop account, select your firm, choose evaluation or funded, and the system auto-fills account size, profit target, max loss, and daily loss limit. You can still add prop firms manually if yours isn't listed.

Core Features in v1.0

Trade Journal

The foundation of My Prop Journal - a complete trade log with filtering, sorting, search, and bulk actions. Track every execution, group related trades, tag with playbooks and strategies, and maintain accurate P&L across all accounts.

Performance Analytics

View cumulative P&L charts, win rate statistics, profit factor, average win/loss, largest win/loss, and more. Filter by account type (prop or retail), time period, symbol, playbook, or strategy. Export data for external analysis.

Trade Writeups

Post-trade analysis documentation with rich asset information (company logos, sector, industry, market cap, beta). Link trades to writeups, auto-populate playbooks and strategies, and filter by performance. Build a library of learning from every trade.

Report Cards

Generate daily, weekly, and monthly performance reports. Select prop or retail accounts, review key statistics, identify top playbooks and strategies, and track progress toward consistency. Report cards serve as checkpoints for trader development.

Trade Plans

Pre-market preparation and strategy documentation. Create unlimited trade plans (paid tier) or one plan (free tier) outlining your daily game plan, market conditions, and planned trades.

Playbooks

Document your trading setups with detailed criteria, entry rules, exit rules, and risk parameters. Link trades to playbooks, track win rates per setup, and refine your edge over time.

Strategies

Organize entry and exit strategies within sections. Tag individual trade executions with strategies to understand which entries and exits work best. Filter strategies by trade type during imports and manual entry.

Chartbooks

Save and annotate trading charts for future reference (paid tier only). Upload screenshots, add notes, and build a visual library of market conditions and trade setups.

Calendar View

View daily trading performance on a calendar. See profitable days (green), losing days (red), and click any date for detailed breakdowns. Plan your trading week and review patterns.

Why Version 1.0 Matters

Production Ready

Beta was about building features, testing edge cases, and refining workflows based on user feedback. Version 1.0 marks our transition from experimental to production-ready. The platform is stable, performant, and designed for daily use by active traders.

Free Tier Accessibility

Not everyone can justify $34/month for a trade journal before they've tested it. The free tier removes that barrier. Use My Prop Journal with one prop account and one retail account indefinitely. Upgrade when you need more capacity or advanced features.

Complete Account Management

Version 1.0 supports both prop and retail accounts natively. You don't need separate journals, separate spreadsheets, or separate systems. One journal, all accounts, unified workflow.

Scalable for Growth

As you grow as a trader, My Prop Journal scales with you. Start with the free tier and one eval account. Add retail accounts when you start trading personal capital. Upgrade to paid when you're managing multiple evals, funded accounts, and retail accounts simultaneously.

Built for Trader Development

Trade journals aren't just logs - they're learning tools. Version 1.0 combines trade tracking (log, performance, accounts) with trader development (writeups, report cards, playbooks, strategies, plans, chartbooks). Track what happened and learn why it happened.

What's Next

Version 1.0 is our foundation, not our finish line. Here's what we're actively working on:

Options Support (Coming Soon)

Single leg options support for calls and puts is in active development. Full options chain tracking, multi-leg spreads, and options-specific analytics will follow.

Landing Page Redesign

A completely redesigned landing page with improved SEO, clearer value proposition, and better feature showcases. Currently in progress.

Mobile Optimization

Enhanced mobile experience for trade entry, performance review, and writeup creation on phones and tablets.

Advanced Analytics

Additional performance metrics, custom reporting, correlation analysis, and deeper insights into trading behavior.

Additional Platform Integrations

Expanding CSV import support based on user demand. If your platform isn't supported yet, request it.
