Trading Diary is the solution you need to Become a Better Trader. Trading Diary will take your trading to the next level by giving you a comprehensive and powerful, yet simple to use, platform for planning, managing, and reviewing your stock trades.

LITE vs FULL version: Trading Diary Lite only supports stocks and limits number of trades to 10 trades per year. It does not support futures, options and forex, multiple trading accounts and strategies. To remove all limitations and get full support of all trading instruments please buy the separate full version from App Store.

Trading Diary has been developed based on the doctrines of Dr. Alexander Elder, widely recognized as the leading voice in trading psychology today, who stresses the importance of keeping a trading diary to become a better trader in his books The New Sell and Sell Short and Come to My Trading Room.

 Trading Diary implements Dr. Elder’s outstanding approach to recordkeeping in a simple yet powerful app, now available for your iPad.

WHY SHOULD I KEEP A TRADING DIARY? 

Simple - you only improve when you learn from your mistakes. As Dr. Elder explains in The New Sell and Sell Short, there are two goals for every trade you initiate: to make money and to become a better trader. “You may or may not reach the first goal, but you must reach the second. If you do not learn from your trades, you are wasting your time and money.”



Your method of trading - charts, technical analysis, fundamentals, etc - is only one piece of a successful trading strategy. It doesn’t address the other two most important aspects - risk management and improving your skills. This is where Trading Diary is indispensable.



Just set your parameters in the settings to get started - max risk % per trade, max risk % per month, and starting deposit. Then, as you plan your trade and adjust any of the three risk factors - money to put in the trade, number of shares to trade, or risk threshold - Trading Diary will automatically adjust the other two factors, ensuring that your risk is always limited and that you don’t overtrade.



WHY DO I NEED THIS APP?

The same reason you need a car. It will get you where you want to go much faster and with much less hassle than walking or taking the subway.



Trading Diary gives you a platform for recording every aspect of your trades, from entry to exit, in a comprehensive but easy-to-navigate interface that will make learning from your mistakes and successes as simple as reading from a manual. It’s actually like writing your own training manual as you go! 



Bottom line? Trading Diary will help you Become a Better Trader.
