Futures Trading Journal

A futures journal
that keeps up with leverage.

Futures and perpetuals punish a sizing mistake far harder than spot. Tracker Fx journals every contract automatically, with leverage, risk and R:R captured the moment the trade closes.

Every contract, captured.

Futures trading depends on the fields the journal records. Tracker Fx pulls them all from the broker automatically.

Leverage per trade

Leverage and contract size recorded on every fill. Spot the trades that quietly used 50x instead of 5x.

Win rate & R-multiple

Overall and per-contract win rate, average R and expectancy. The three numbers a leveraged trader cannot ignore.

Drawdown & equity curve

Track maximum drawdown and recovery periods. Leverage makes drawdown the metric that matters most.

Per-contract breakdown

P&L and win rate split by perpetual, index or commodity. Know which contracts actually carry your edge.

Time-of-day analysis

P&L by hour and by session. Crypto perpetuals especially have time-of-day patterns worth measuring.

P&L calendar

Daily and monthly P&L as a heatmap. Spot the days leverage was too generous and the ones it was not enough.

The real problem

Leverage and a manual journal do not mix.

A spreadsheet you fill at the end of the day misses the trade that took 12% out of the account at 11am.

Manual spreadsheet
Late, missing leverage, easy to fudge.
Leverage on each trade is guessed, not recorded.
Funding and rollover costs are forgotten.
Per-contract breakdowns are too much work.
The journal stops matching the exchange.
Tracker Fx
The exact contract, captured.
Leverage and contract size recorded on every fill.
Real P&L recorded with fees and funding included.
Per-contract analytics ready by default.
Your journal always matches the exchange record.

FAQ

Futures journal questions.

What futures and perpetual traders ask before they connect their first venue.

What is a futures trading journal?

A futures trading journal records every futures or perpetual position you take, including the contract, direction, leverage, entry and exit price, size, P&L and risk/reward. Because futures are leveraged, tracking size and risk per trade matters even more than in spot trading.

Does Tracker Fx work for crypto perpetual futures?

Yes. Tracker Fx connects to Bybit Global via a read-only API key and journals USDT-margined (linear) and coin-margined (inverse) perpetual futures automatically, alongside spot. Trades sync roughly every 2 hours.

Which platforms does it support for futures?

Crypto perpetual futures are supported natively through Bybit. Futures-style instruments such as index, commodity and metal contracts are supported through cTrader, OANDA and MetaTrader 4 and MT5, all via API with no manual import.

Why is journaling more important for futures?

Leverage magnifies both the result and the mistake. A small sizing error on a futures position is far more costly than on an unleveraged one, so consistent risk tracking and an accurate record of every contract is essential rather than optional.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Tracker Fx includes a 7-day free trial with full access to all journaling and analytics features. Card required, cancel anytime.
