The trading journal that does the maths
Stop typing your P&L.
Start seeing your edge.
Most journals are a spreadsheet with nicer fonts — one row per trade, one entry, one exit, and a profit column you calculate yourself. Trader Blueprint records every fill and derives the rest: average price, realized P&L, R-multiple, drawdown.

01 — THE MODEL
A trade is the idea. Every fill is an execution.
That one design choice is what makes everything else possible. You record what happened; the app works out what it means.
You enter
- Buy 100 @ ₹200, add 50 @ ₹210
- Sell 80 @ ₹230, sell 70 @ ₹195
- Set your stop and risk once, at entry
It derives
- Average buy ₹203.33 · average sell ₹213.67
- Gross P&L ₹1,550 before charges · ≈ +1.55R against ₹1,000 planned risk, frozen at entry
- Win/loss, holding days, return %, drawdown
Avg buy₹203.33
Avg sell₹213.67
Gross P&L₹1,550
R-multiple+1.55R
You never type a P&L figure. There is no field for it — a number you can type is a number you can get wrong. The ₹1,550 above is gross; the figure the app reports is net, after it subtracts the real brokerage charges.
02 — COST BASIS
Every fill, not every trade
Buy three times, sell four times, and it's still one trade. Weighted-average cost basis is computed from the executions themselves, so scale-ins and scale-outs never break your numbers.
Set your stop at entry and R is fixed for the life of the trade. Partial exits move your open risk; they never quietly rebase the number you're measured against.

03 — EXCURSION
Excursion analysis — MAE & MFE
Your entry and your exit are two flat points on a chart. Everything that decided whether the trade worked happened between them, and a P&L column throws all of it away.
Every trade plots as a dot — green for wins, red for losses — so the pattern is visible before you read a single number.

04 — WINNERS
Winner analysis
A whole page devoted to one question most traders never ask: what did my best trades have in common?
Profit concentration — how much of your gross profit came from how few trades. Your top 20% against every other winner on R, hold time and capture rate. Whether holding longer actually pays. The conclusions written out from your own numbers.

05 — SYSTEM QUALITY
The statistics that actually matter, and live risk
Win rate flatters you. System Quality Number, expectancy, payoff ratio, max drawdown and recovery factor tell you whether the edge is real or you've just been lucky — each with a plain-English verdict.
Above your open positions: portfolio heat — the share of your current equity genuinely at risk if every open stop were hit at once.

06 — THE REST
Built around how you actually trade
Not a generic template with your logo on it.
Charges that are correct
Indian equity delivery is STT on both sides, stamp duty on the buy, a flat DP charge on every sell, plus GST on part of it. Get it wrong and small trades look profitable when they aren't.
Your dropdowns, your words
Setups, tactics, mistakes, exit triggers — editable lists you own. Rename one and every past trade follows. Retire one and your history stays intact.
A journal for the day
Write your own evening questions once. Yes/no and 1–5 ratings turn into a discipline trend you can lay over your P&L calendar.
What happened after you sold
The feed keeps watching a stock for 30 days after you exit. Selling too early is the most expensive habit in swing trading and the hardest to notice.
Time-weighted returns
The default return metric, because simple return distorts badly around the dates you add or withdraw money.
API-first, so mobile is free
Every screen reads the same documented REST API. A native app later consumes exactly the same endpoints — no rewrite, no second source of truth.
07 — WHO MADE THIS
Built by a trader, for their own trading
I kept a spreadsheet for years and it kept lying to me — wrong costs on small trades, a return number that jumped every time I added funds, no way to see how much of a move I actually caught. Trader Blueprint is the journal I wanted instead.
It's stress-tested on real, broker-reconciled trades — matched to the paisa and cent against the contract notes. No user-count banner, no press logos — there's nothing to inflate yet.
08 — PRICING

09 — QUESTIONS
Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The free plan is the whole journal today — unlimited trades, every analytic, both currencies. A paid tier is planned later for features that cost money to operate; it won't take anything away from the free plan.
Who can see my trades?
Only you. Your data lives in a database schema that is not exposed to the public API at all, and the application connects with a least-privilege role. There is no shared view of your positions.
Do I need a Zerodha account?
No. Kite sync is an optional convenience. Manual entry and spreadsheet import work fully without any broker connection.
Can I run US and Indian portfolios together?
Yes, under one login. Each portfolio is a sealed silo with its own capital and equity curve. Rupees and dollars are never summed or converted — the database structurally prevents it.
Can I import my existing spreadsheet?
Yes. A dry-run validation pass shows exactly what trades and executions would be created before a single row is written.
Is there a mobile app?
Not yet. Every screen already reads a documented REST API, so a native app can be built on the same endpoints without a rewrite.
Who's behind it?
A swing trader building the journal for their own trading, on real reconciled data. That's the whole story so far.
