Here is the first sketch for the table heading:
red cells i think should be hidden/deleted as either unnecessary or privacy reasons
green cells should stay imho
grey cells some of them should go, very much open to debate.
obviously we will have to cook it down a bit...


we could also include a privacy setting where either all stats are hidden that could give any clue about account size or some stats, like cars/exit, risk% per trade would show....

furthermore I think of three options at the top:
1. show last day
2. show last week
3. show user selectable period (trade# min and max)

So what do you think? Please post your suggestions!! we need some participation here

Thanks, @Big Mike. Can I pm you the latest version with some sample data? How many trades do you need in there?

Just whatever you can manage, so everything is populated.

Mike

good idea!

Statistics only in ticks, with the last day/week/period...

After longish silence from my side (i was busy implementing things into the journal) I think I will be able to release a beta tomorrow....hopefully....
It will have a tool for easy screenshots of trades from the journal....so that they can be posted conveniently to the forum without showing any data that is regarded too private.

Hi vvhg,

I stopped updating this because it was too much work to modify it to suit my needs each time, and I was focused on other ways of analyzing my trades.

I just downloaded the latest version and it looks very impressive. For those who like or need to tinker, would it be possible for to set it up so that we could delete or add rows to the Journal without messing up all the calculations?

unless you get into the inner workings of it prolly wont be that easy.. vvhg knows for sure tho.. but you could make a feature request to be implemented..

dont believe anything you hear and only half of what you see

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
