Trade Snapshots

Taking trade snapshots of your charts is an important part of journaling your trades because it allows you to see them exactly as they were at the time of trading, with all your current indicators and drawing tools. If you simply open your chart again later, you may have removed a trendline or support/resistance level and read the price action of the chart very differently. To ensure accuracy and consistency, we recommend recording a snapshot at the time of entering and exiting your trades, as well as any other times of interest, such as when you made a decision to move your stop or target or a few days after your trade closed.

To add trade snapshots, you can either paste an image link or upload images directly from your device. You can manage your slots in the Snapshot Slots Manager in the left sidebar menu. To add additional images outside of your default slots, click the "Add Snapshot" button at the bottom of the screen and add a name to indicate what your snapshot is about.

Snapshot viewer

Your trade snapshots are located at the bottom of every tab for easy reference while recording your trade. You can use the arrows to scroll through your images or click the thumbnails in the gallery to open the image in our viewer for a full-size image with zoom and panning options.
