📊 Trades & Charts

Your Complete Trading Journal

TradeMetrics automatically loads all your trades from MetaTrader 5 or crypto exchanges and displays them in a clean, powerful table. Grouped by month and week, enriched with dozens of metrics, and equipped with TradingView-style charts — this is your trading diary on a whole new level.

📅 Grouped by Month & Week

Your trades are automatically organized into a clear hierarchical structure:

• 📅 Month — see the total result for each month at a glance
• 📆 Week — see the result for each week inside the month
• 🔹 Trade row — every individual trade with full details

This structure makes it easy to spot patterns, evaluate monthly performance, and compare weeks against each other.

📋 Column Reference

Every column in the table gives you a specific piece of information:

🟢 Live Open Positions

At the top of the Trades tab, right below the status bar, you'll see a live open positions panel. It shows all currently open positions on your account and updates automatically every 3 seconds.

For each open position you'll see:

• 📈 Symbol — the instrument you're currently trading (e.g. EURUSD, BTCUSDT)
• 🟢🔴 Type — BUY or SELL direction
• 📊 Volume — current position size
• 💰 Entry price — where you opened the position
• 📉 Current price — live market price right now
• 💵 Profit / Loss — unrealized P/L in real time (green if profit, red if loss)

When you have no open positions, you'll see the message "📭 No open positions".

📈 TradingView-Style Charts

Click the 📈 button in any trade row — and a standalone TradingView chart window opens for that trade. The chart shows:

• 🕯️ Candlestick chart of the symbol at the time of the trade
• 🟢 Entry marker — where you opened the position (with price)
• 🔴 Exit marker — where you closed the position (with price)
• 📊 TRADE RESULT panel — Change % and Profit $ at a glance
• 📉 MFE / MAE — Maximum Favorable / Adverse Excursion
• 📊 Volume panel at the bottom

🔄 Timeframe Switching

Inside the chart window you can switch between 5 timeframes with one click:

• 1m — 1 minute (best for scalping)
• 5m — 5 minutes
• 15m — 15 minutes
• 1h — 1 hour
• 4h — 4 hours

The chart automatically re-centers on the trade every time you switch timeframes, so you always see the trade in context.

✏️ Drawing Tools

The chart includes a built-in toolbox on the left side with classic drawing tools:

• 📏 Trend lines
• 🔲 Rectangles
• 📐 Fibonacci retracements
• 🎯 Horizontal and vertical lines

Use them to mark support/resistance levels, identify patterns, or annotate your analysis directly on the trade chart. Drawings stay on the chart even when you switch timeframes.

📊 Multi-Chart Comparison

One of the most powerful features — open multiple chart windows at once to compare trades side by side.

For example: open 3 charts for 3 different trades of the same symbol and see how your entries/exits differ. Or compare the same trade across 2 different timeframes to understand the market context.

Each chart window is fully independent — its own timeframe, its own drawings, its own zoom level. Perfect for detailed post-trade analysis.

📡 Market Banner

At the top of the application there's a live Market Banner that shows real-time data — so you always know what's happening in the markets without leaving the journal.

On the right side of the banner you'll also see:

• 🟢 Connection indicator — green dot when connected
• Broker name — e.g. FundedNext-Server 2, Binance, MEXC
• 💰 Account balance — current balance from the account
• 📊 Net P/L — total profit or loss, colored green/red

💰 Initial Balance — Why enter it?

To correctly calculate percentage metrics, you need to specify the initial balance of your account. This allows TradeMetrics to calculate percentage returns — a relative value that shows the real effectiveness of your trading regardless of account size.
