Learn how to import, manage, and analyze your trading data with TradeDog. From CSV imports to multi-account management, we provide powerful tools to track your trading performance.

CSV Data Import

Import your trading data from any platform with our intelligent CSV import system. Once uploaded, TradeDog processes your trades, calculates P&L using FIFO accounting, and updates your account balance.

Supported Platforms:

• NinjaTrader - Full support with automatic format detection
• Custom CSV - If your platform can export the same fields as NinjaTrader
• More platforms coming soon - Additional platform support in development

Key Features:

• Automatic duplicate detection
• FIFO (First-In-First-Out) accounting for accurate P&L
• Balance calculation
• Error reporting and validation
• Futures trading day logic (6PM-5PM EST)

Best Practices:

• Export from your platform in chronological order
• Check for duplicate imports before uploading
• Review import errors carefully for formatting issues
• Keep original CSV files as backups

Complete Trade Cycles

The Trades view groups your executions into complete position cycles - from opening a position to closing it completely (zero contracts). This gives you a clear picture of your trading performance per complete position.

What is a Trade Cycle?

A trade cycle represents a complete journey: opening a position (long or short), potentially adding to it, and finally closing it completely back to zero contracts. Example: Buy 2 ES → Sell 1 ES → buy 2 more ES → Sell remaining 3 ES = 1 complete trade cycle.

Trade Information:

• Entry and exit times (trade duration)
• Average entry and exit prices
• Total contracts traded
• Complete P&L for the full cycle
• Trade classification (long/short)
