There are several errors in the Analytics section as well. Some calculations and statistics do not seem to match the actual trade data, so the Analytics results should be reviewed and corrected carefully.
Could you please share more details on these calculations. What data points are you referring to?
Can you share some screenshots?
I will ensure I get that fixed for you on priority.

Hi Javed,
Thank you very much for your quick response and your support.
After testing the journal more, I believe the main issue is not necessarily that the calculations themselves are wrong, but rather that the journal currently does not seem fully compatible with Forex trading. Because of this, several discrepancies appear in the Analytics section.
Some examples are:
RRR / CRV calculations
Position sizing / Lot Size calculations
correct Forex ticker handling (e.g. EURUSD)
automatic rounding of entry and exit prices (please no rounding)
I think the best solution would be allowing users to select the asset class individually for each account (Forex, Stocks, Crypto, Futures, etc.), since every asset class uses different calculation methods.
Are these kinds of adjustments and Forex integrations planned in the future?
I would like to add more accounts to the platform, but since additional accounts are paid, I would prefer to do that once these Forex-related improvements have been implemented.
That being said, I still think the journal is very well designed, clean and user-friendly. Thank you for your work and your support — I really appreciate it. At the moment, however, it does not yet feel fully compatible with professional Forex trading.
