Use Demo Data To Get Started

Published on Feb 16, 2026

Most traders never experience what a mature, data-rich journal looks like.
Their dashboard is empty, reports are blank, AI chat has nothing to work with, and comparisons feel pointless.

That ends today.

We just shipped "Fill with Demo Data" - available right now in Journal Settings for every plan.

How to use it (30 seconds):

1. Log in to traderinsight.pro
2. Go to your Journal Settings
3. Scroll down
4. Click "Fill with Demo Data"

Boom - your journal instantly gets populated with realistic (but fake) trades across stocks, crypto, forex - complete with tags, notes, strategies, mistakes, PnL variance, different hold times, time-of-day patterns, and more.

Why this matters (and why we built it):

See the power without waiting months - Watch how reports light up, mistake patterns emerge, profitable setups jump out, and AI answers get scary-accurate once there's real volume.
Sandbox for experimentation - Tag, filter, compare, tweak dashboards, test custom KPIs - all without touching your live or paper trades.
Demo & affiliate gold - Need clean, non-sensitive data for YouTube walkthroughs, Twitter threads, student onboarding, or mentor reviews? No more awkward empty screenshots or blurring personal trades.
Paper traders & beginners - Jump straight into advanced analysis mode. Build habits on realistic data before risking real money.
Mentors & community leaders - Show students what progress looks like after 100+ reviewed trades.

This isn't filler stuff - it's simulated but statistically plausible data modeled after real trader behavior (wins, blow-ups, FOMO entries, disciplined exits, revenge trades, you name it). Enough volume to make every report meaningful.

Already loving the speed we ship? This one came from multiple user requests in the last few days. Keep them coming - we usually build in 24-48 hours.

What is the "Fill with Demo Data" feature?

It's a one-click tool in Journal Settings that instantly populates your journal with realistic (but fake) trades - stocks, crypto, forex (soon also futures, options, cash transactions, dividends, etc.) complete with tags, notes, strategies, mistakes, PnL variance, and performance patterns. See what months and even years of consistent journaling actually unlocks without waiting or using your real data.

How do I add demo data to my journal?

Is the demo data realistic / useful for testing?

Yes - it's modeled after real trader behavior: wins, blow-ups, FOMO entries, disciplined exits, revenge trades, different hold times, time-of-day patterns. Enough volume to make reports, AI chat, strategy comparisons, and mistake tracking meaningful right away.

Can I use demo data for affiliate / demo videos or mentor reviews?

Absolutely. It's non-sensitive, clean data - perfect for YouTube walkthroughs, Twitter threads, student onboarding, or showing "what progress looks like after 100+ trades" without blurring personal info.

Will adding demo data affect my real trades or paper trades?

No. You can either create a seperate journal for your demo trades or simply fill your current one up with demo content. Existing content will be replaced with the demo data.

Can I customize or add to the demo data after filling?

Yes - treat it like normal trades. Tag new setups, add notes, tweak dashboards, test custom KPIs. Great sandbox for experimenting before applying to your real journal.

Is this only for beginners / paper traders?

No - it's valuable for everyone: new users see the power instantly, affiliates/content creators get pro-looking demos, mentors show "mature journal" examples, experienced traders test new report ideas without risking real data.
