# Jornalo

> Trading journal for futures traders and prop-firm accounts (Apex Trader Funding, Topstep, Lucid, FundedNext, MyFundedFutures, BluSky, Take Profit Trader, Apteros). It syncs trades from NinjaTrader 8 by reading the local database from the browser, imports CSV from Tradovate, Rithmic, Sierra Chart and ATAS, detects prop accounts automatically and tracks the distance to each account's daily-loss and trailing-drawdown limits. Setups with expectancy per setup, a risk plan (risk ladder) per account, daily P&L calendar, economic calendar with USDA and CFTC data, asset correlations, journal mirrors for copy traders, and an MCP server so AI agents can read and annotate the journal. Interface in Spanish, English, Portuguese, German, French and Dutch.

Jornalo is built by an independent futures trader. Free plan: 1 account and the last 31 days of history, no card. Pro: $29/month or $278/year, 14-day trial. Not financial advice; it records and analyzes trades.
