Anybody using a trade tracking / journal program? I've been manually entering positions in a spreadsheet and finding that an increasingly untenable approach.
I duckduckgo'd to see if there was anything like this already out there:
I found several options. Just reading the description I think I like the looks of this one the most:
That is because they spend the most time talking about the stuff that matters most to me - easy trade imports (export the CSV from broker; import the CSV into tool), and easy interface for assigning positions to trades (where they don't automatically get assigned). Keep tracking of an evolving position to see how it is performing over time. E.g. a PMCC with a long dated call paired up with a large series of short term short call sales.
Analyze trade types to see what is working best for me, etc..
I haven't tried anything like this, but I consider a trading journal essential. And one that has all trades - not just a subset I think important at the time. And the entry for this is becoming a problem for me
The downside - this is going to be $50/month or $500/year.
