Trade log spreadsheet

status1

Well-known member
I have a suggestion for the trade log spreadsheet

I was thinking maybe you want to add a front end to it for other traders that are not trading 0 DTE trades but still want a trade log spreadsheet
There were a few members not long ago who were asking about a trade log to track their option trades
In particular I was thinking about the Boxcar Tools Ver 0.92 spreadsheet from around Feb 23 that was one of the last one before it was started to be changed to the day trading spreadsheet Not sure if you still have it or if you want to recreate it
I particularly liked that one and I am still using it I think it's very useful to anyone who has TOS to take advantage of the RTD functions to pull in the data

It had a monitor tab and I made copies of this tab one for each brokerage account that is where I enter the opra code and keep track of the p/l

It also had a dashboard I also modified it to pull in the data from all the brokerage tabs than at the end of the day I transfer the data from the dashboard using a little macro to another spreadsheet that way it locks in the historical data and keep track of the daily p/l moves and I also take a screenshot of the analyze tab and place it in a folder and from there I use a hyperlink to each trade that way I can click on any hyperlink and show a screenshot of the analyze tab at any time in the trade EOD

Later on I added a table to the spreadsheet that has the monitor tab and when I close a trade I transfer the data to the table which looks somewhat similar to your trade log spreadsheet except I don't have daily trades so for someone who makes 0 dte trades your spreadsheet would be simple enough to use but for those who make longer dte trades and have some adjustments I thought it might be better to use some RTD to keep track of each leg rather then just the total p/l for the trade
 
Thanks for the suggestion!

I did some work modifying the trade log spreadsheet this weekend. I'll clean it up a bit and release it shortly.
 
Just to confirm on the different account numbers that is at the same brokerage , correct ?
So you would have to make a separate trade log for each brokerage
 
it is broker agnostic. You could have three accounts at three different brokers and track it on one spreadsheet
 
How can I add another brokerage on the same spreadsheet ?
I see different accounts on the home tab but I don't see a connection to the trades tab
If I change the starting balance on the trades tab it does not change anything on the home tab so not sure how the data gets transferred unless I am misunderstanding
 
The Trades sheet allows different accounts. It doesn't matter what broker they are at.
The Home tab isn't linked to the Trades tab. I manually enter the NLV at the end of the month and the end of the day
 
I understand that there are different accounts I just don't see how it could be set up for different brokerages
How do I set up for a different brokerage ?
 
I heard on the Trading group for Sep 27 that you made a new version and you said that there are no restrictions and anyone should have access but it looks like only gold members have access to the trade log
