Trade log & CSV import
Log entries, exits, fees, stop-loss and targets by hand - or import your MT5 CSV history and keep your broker's own reported P&L.
The free trading journal built for gold & forex traders
Log or import your trades, see your win rate, P&L and R-multiples laid bare, and find out exactly which setups, days and hours make you money - and which quietly drain it.
100% free. No card, no trial, no catch - your trading data stays yours.
Everything a serious trading journal needs
Built by a trader, for traders - every screen exists to answer one question: what should you do differently on the next trade?
Deep statistics & Pro Score
Win rate, profit factor, expectancy, streaks, drawdown and a six-axis Pro Score that condenses your whole edge into one number.
P&L calendar
A month at a glance: every day's profit, trade count and weekly totals - with optional national holiday overlays for ZA and US market closures.
Weekly review
A guided end-of-week debrief: day-by-day results, notes and the patterns you'd otherwise only notice months later.
Trading coach
Once you have enough trades on film, the coach breaks down your strengths and weaknesses and builds you a concrete training plan.
Real charts & news
Daily XAUUSD, BTCUSD, US500 and major-pair candle data with an economic calendar - replay your trades on the actual price action.
Multiple accounts
Separate live, demo and prop-firm accounts with their own balances, deposits and withdrawals - switch between them in one click.
Privacy & risk guardrails
One-click blur for sensitive numbers, plus max-daily-loss and max-trades-per-day guardrails that flag you before a bad day becomes a blown account.
Up and running in minutes
No installs, no spreadsheets, no setup wizard - just your trades and the truth about them.
Create your free account
Sign up with Google or email - or skip the account entirely and keep your journal in your own browser.
Log or import your trades
Add trades as you take them, or drop in your broker's CSV export and have your whole history journaled at once.
Review, learn, adjust
The stats, calendar, coach and weekly review show you what's working - so the next trade is taken with evidence, not hope.
Grounded in real market data
Most journals stop at your own numbers. Bullion Book bundles daily candle data for gold and the majors, so your trades are analyzed against what the market was actually doing.
- MAE / MFE: how far trades ran against and for you while open
- Performance on high-volatility vs low-volatility days
- Trade entry, stop and target levels replayed on real charts
- Economic news events lined up against your trading times

In 2026 most trading journals charge $20-50 a month for the discipline habit itself. Bullion Book keeps journaling free - no trial clock, no locked "pro" tier - because a journal only works if you never have a reason to stop using it.

Frequently asked questions
The short version: it's free, it's private, and it runs anywhere.
Is Bullion Book really free?
Yes - Bullion Book is completely free. Create an account to sync your journal to your private login, or try it without an account and your data stays in your own browser.
Can I import trades from my broker?
Yes. You can import your broker's CSV trade history (for example a MetaTrader 5 export) and Bullion Book keeps the broker's own reported P&L. You can also log trades manually with entries, exits, fees, stop-loss and target levels.
Is my trading data private?
Yes. Your journal lives under your own private login and is never shown to anyone else unless you explicitly share a snapshot. There is also a one-click privacy blur for streaming or trading in public places.
Which instruments does Bullion Book support?

Do I need to install anything?
No. Bullion Book runs entirely in your web browser on desktop and mobile - nothing to download or install.
What is the best free trading journal for gold and forex traders?
