Import your broker history.

Your real trades become review sessions, one per symbol. All you need is a CSV file of your history.

  1. Export your history as a CSV

    From your MetaTrader 4 or 5 terminal, or from any tool that can produce a CSV of your closed trades.

    In MetaTrader: the History tab (Ctrl+T), right-click, the period (for example All History), then Report (MT5) or Save as Report (MT4). Open the report in Excel or Google Sheets and save it as CSV.

  2. Open “Import a history”

    The Import a history button is on the Sessions page, next to the search. The ? at the top of the window reminds you how to get the CSV.

  3. Drop your file

    Drag your CSV onto the Drop your CSV here area, or click it to choose the file. The file is analysed then discarded: only your trades are kept.

  4. Set the format and the time zone

    Under Format, keep MT4 / MT5 for a MetaTrader export. Otherwise choose Generic, then map each column of your file under Columns.

    Under Broker time zone, enter your broker's time. UTC+2 and UTC+3 are the most common with MetaTrader brokers.

  5. Check the preview

    The preview shows the number of trades recognised and of sessions that will be created, one per symbol. A symbol on a white background has its candles; with a dashed outline, it will be reviewed in journal mode. If no trade is recognised, try the Generic format.

  6. Import, then open

    Click Import. Each symbol gives a review session: click Open to read it.

Good to know
  • If TradeChart has the symbol's candles, the session is reviewed on the chart. Otherwise it opens in journal mode: statistics and notes, without a chart.
  • A review session is read-only: you can add notes to it, not change its trades.
  • You can re-import a longer history: trades already imported are ignored.
  • Coming soon: linking your broker account directly in the app, without going through a file.

The simplest thing is to try it.
