Options Trading Journal
Track every contract, strategy, and expiration - analyze performance by setup, DTE, underlying, and premium across your full options trading history.
Options traders lose money in ways that never show up in a basic P&L.
You're profitable on verticals but losing on naked calls. Your 0DTE win rate looks fine until you account for the one blowup a month that wipes three weeks of premium. Your earnings plays feel good because you remember the winners - not the 60% that expired worthless.
TraderInsight.pro gives options traders the specific analytics that matter: performance by strategy type, DTE, underlying, and IV environment - across options, stocks, and futures in one journal.
Options trades from any broker, imported in seconds
Use Drag-and-drop or API imports from Interactive Brokers, ThinkOrSwim, Webull, E-Trade, Charles Schwab, Tastytrade, and more. Every contract, leg, and strategy ready to analyze immediately.
Verticals, condors, naked calls - which strategy actually pays
Tag every options trade by strategy type - credit spread, debit spread, iron condor, naked call, covered call, straddle. Run the report and see win rate, average premium, and P&L broken down by strategy. Know what to trade more of and what to cut.
0DTE vs. 30DTE - where does your real performance come from
Tag trades by days to expiration and run comparison reports across DTE ranges. See whether closing early or riding to expiration produces better results for each strategy type - and stop making that decision by feel.
Log the full thesis behind every options trade
Record the setup, IV environment, delta at entry, expected move, and reasoning - the context that determines whether your trade was well-reasoned or just lucky. When it closes, you'll know which one it was.
Every options trade reviewed on the underlying chart
Open any options trade and a full TradingView chart of the underlying loads inside your journal - indicators, drawing tools, and timeframe switching included. See exactly what price action looked like at entry and expiration.
