For MetaTrader 4 & 5 · forex and CFD
An FX Blue alternative for reviewing your MT4/MT5 trades
FX Blue Live is free statistics you can publish and share. This journal is for the review behind them: each deal from your terminal within a minute, P&L that matches the statement, and what each mistake cost you. Free for one account — and you can keep both.
For forex and CFD traders on their own broker account or prop challenges. Upload last month’s report and see it in a minute — or connect the terminal once and forget about it.

FX Blue and this journal, side by side
| What matters | FX Blue | Trading Journal |
|---|---|---|
| How trades get in | The FX Blue Publisher EA in your MT4/MT5 terminal, or account sync with your investor password on their servers. | A read-only connector in your terminal with a key you can revoke — no password at all. Or upload the report file. |
| How often it updates | Publisher EA: every 5 minutes by default and on new trading activity, configurable down to 60 seconds. Account sync: varies by platform and broker. | Each new deal within a minute while the terminal runs; the whole history on the first connect. |
| Matches the broker statement | — | Every import is reconciled with the statement totals; any difference is shown, duplicates are skipped. |
| Reviewing each trade | — | Mistake and emotion tags in a minute, the cost of each mistake, rules kept vs. broken. |
| Sharing results | Yes — public statistics, with the trade list hidden if you choose; embeds and APIs. | No. The journal is private. |
| Price | Free. | Free for one account, connector included, no trade limit. Pro (more accounts, API sync) — price set before launch. |

Questions
›Can I use FX Blue and this journal together?
Yes. Both only read the account. The FX Blue Publisher EA and our connector can run in the same terminal on different charts.
›Why no investor password?
Our connector sends deals from inside your own terminal with a key you can revoke any time. Nothing logs in to your account from our servers — which also matters for prop firms that restrict third-party access.
›Is it safe to connect my trading account?
The connector runs in your own terminal and only reads the history. It never places, modifies or closes orders — our build checks its code for trading calls — and its source is published with checksums. We never ask for your master or investor password.
›Is my broker supported?
If your broker runs MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5, yes: the connector works from inside the terminal, whoever the broker is. You can also upload the MT5 HTML/XLSX report or the MT4 statement.
