Built by Traders, for Traders
A professional trading journal designed to help you track, analyze, and systematically improve your trading performance.
Our Mission
Most traders fail not because of bad strategies, but because they lack the discipline to track, review, and learn from their trades. CandleLog exists to change that. We provide traders with the tools they need to journal every trade, identify patterns in their behavior, and make data-driven decisions that compound over time.
What CandleLog Offers
CandleLog is more than a trade log. It is a complete trading performance system built around the principles that separate profitable traders from the rest.
- Comprehensive Trade Logging: Record every detail of your trades including entry, exit, size, P&L, screenshots, and notes. Import trades directly from your broker or enter them manually with our streamlined interface.
- Performance Analytics: Visualize your trading performance with detailed metrics, charts, and reports. Track win rate, profit factor, average R, and dozens of other key performance indicators over any time period.
- Strategy Management: Define, track, and analyze multiple trading strategies. Set rules for each strategy and measure how well you follow them. Identify which setups are actually profitable and which ones are costing you money.
- Calendar View: See your trading activity at a glance with a visual calendar that shows daily P&L, helping you identify patterns in your performance across different days and market conditions.
- Journal & Notes: Document your market observations, trading psychology, and lessons learned. Build a personal knowledge base that grows with your experience.
Who CandleLog Is For
CandleLog is designed for serious traders who understand that consistent profitability comes from consistent process improvement.
- Day Traders: Track your intraday performance, identify your best trading hours, and analyze how market conditions affect your results.
- Swing Traders: Monitor multi-day positions, track holding periods, and measure how well you time your entries and exits.

Why Choose CandleLog
We built CandleLog because we were frustrated with existing solutions. Spreadsheets are tedious to maintain. Most journal apps are either too simple or bloated with features you do not need. CandleLog strikes the right balance.
- Simple but Powerful: Clean interface that gets out of your way while providing the analytical depth you need.
- Data-Driven Insights: Every feature is designed to help you uncover actionable insights from your trading data.
