Review every trade.
Build your edge.
Log the trade, name the mistake, and carry the next rule forward. A trading journal engineered for Indian markets — NSE, NFO and MCX, with BSE holdings pulled in through broker sync.

Late exits repeat in 4 of 7 red trades.
Illustrative interface preview. The figures are sample data, not a live account and not a performance record.
The market punishes guesswork.
It rewards a review habit.
SEBI's study found 93% of individual traders lost money in equity F&O between FY22 and FY24 — aggregate losses crossed ₹1.8 lakh crore. The traders who survive treat every loss as data, not destiny. TradeBook turns that data into rules.

1 loop
capture → diagnose → improve
The daily review habit TradeBook is built around.
Everything that actually runs.
No teaser features, and no roadmap dressed up as a product. Four pillars, twelve working surfaces, and every real limit written next to the thing it limits.
01 — Guardrails
Rules that run before you click, not after you lose.
Risk Guardian
Set the daily loss you are willing to take. The desk enforces it for you.
- 4% drawdown — new entries are blocked
- 6% drawdown — the trading day is locked
- Escalating levels, each written to a risk-event log
Discipline Monitor
A pre-trade gate. It runs before the trade is written, not in a report next week.
- Two losses inside 30 minutes triggers a cooling-off
- Overtrading, size escalation and same-instrument repetition
- Late-session entry warnings
Auto-Journal
The review that normally never gets written, written for you.
- Fires on every close — manual, stop-loss or target
- Drafts a three-line review of what actually happened
- Appends it to that day's journal entry
02 — Indian money maths
Gross P&L is not money in the bank. This is the difference.
Indian FY tax report
Every closed trade classified the way the Income Tax Act classifies it, across an April–March year.
- STCG at 20% · LTCG at 12.5% with the ₹1.25L exemption tracked
- Intraday as speculative, F&O and MCX as non-speculative business income
- Your slab applied, plus 4% health and education cess
- Turnover reported for the audit threshold
Forensic charges breakdown
Every trade re-priced through the full Indian cost stack, segment by segment.
- Brokerage, STT and CTT at the correct per-segment rate
- Exchange transaction charges and the SEBI turnover fee
- 18% GST and state stamp duty
Segment intelligence
Intraday, delivery, futures, options and MCX are first-class, end to end.
- Separate trailing stop-loss profiles per segment
- Separate STT rates and separate tax treatment
- Separate performance rollups, so options do not hide behind equity
03 — Your edge, measured
Which setup actually pays, and which one only feels good.
Playbook
Tag a setup once. Every trade carrying that tag rolls into its own scorecard.
- Win rate, expectancy, profit factor, average R:R
- Sharpe, streaks and month-by-month P&L per strategy
- Setups compared side by side before you scale one
Plan versus reality
The R:R you intended against the R you actually booked — and what the gap costs.
- Planned vs realised risk-reward on every trade
- Your biggest plan breaches, ranked
- A discipline score plus every mistake tag priced in rupees
Risk of ruin
A real Monte Carlo on your own numbers, not a rule of thumb from a book.
- 5,000 simulated paths of 500 trades each
- Driven by your measured win rate and payoff ratio
- Limitations spelled out in the product, next to the result
04 — Capture and stay on the market
Get it recorded while it is fresh. Get told without living in a tab.
Voice journal, in Indian English
Talk through the session at 3:31pm. It transcribes live and files itself.
- Speech recognition set to en-IN, with a live transcript
- A Hinglish-aware prompt sorts it into plan, outlook, review and lessons
A position book that admits when it is degraded
Live prices with a fallback chain that tells you which source it is on.
- TradingView, then Dhan, then Yahoo — in that order
- Says "Dhan token expired — using TradingView" out loud
Telegram desk
Your own bot, your own channels — TradeBook just routes the message.
- Multiple chats, groups and channels with per-type routing
- Quiet hours and message templates
- A 50-entry delivery log — what went out, and what failed
Eight more things you will use every week.
Smaller surfaces, still shipped. None of these are on a roadmap slide.
Screener
Screen before the open.
Live screening across Indian equities with preset scans, a custom filter builder, save-as-preset, and a column chooser so the table shows what you actually trade on.
Alerts
Watch levels calmly.
Seven condition types — price crosses, percent moves, volume spikes, custom rules — chained so one level arms the next. Evaluated while TradeBook is open.
Local-only mode
Run it with zero server contact.
Choose local storage and the whole app runs against your browser's own database. Nothing is uploaded, because nothing is sent.
Install & offline
Log it without signal.
Install TradeBook to your home screen like an app. Entries taken offline queue locally and sync the moment you are back.
Workspaces
Separate desks, one login.
Keep prop capital, personal capital and experiments in their own workspaces so one does not contaminate the other's statistics.
Share cards
Post the result, not a screenshot.
Generate P&L, trade and streak cards carrying your own logo — sized for Telegram, X and Instagram.
Tag libraries
Your vocabulary, not ours.
Build your own pattern, mistake, candlestick and volume tags. The analytics group by whatever language you actually think in.
Capital ledger
Measure against real capital.
Log deposits and withdrawals so returns are computed against the money that was genuinely in the account, not against a number you remember.
From raw trades to a repeatable edge.
One loop, run daily — capture, diagnose, improve. Everything else on this page exists to serve it.
Capture
Log while the context is fresh.
Setup, screenshot, mood, mistake, and the reason you took it — before the memory rewrites itself.
Diagnose
Name the repeat mistake.
Your own trades, run through arithmetic that does not flatter you — and does not need an AI key.
Improve
Turn the review into a rule.
Move the finding into a guardrail so the next session enforces it instead of relying on willpower.
Built for Indian markets
Unlike generic journals, TradeBook understands Indian market structure — segments, lot sizes, INR formatting, and trading hours.
- NSE, NFO & MCX instrument coverage
- INR formatting with Lakhs & Crores
- Dhan broker auto-sync — brings BSE holdings in too
- IST market-hours aware
Market segments
Outside market hours· 09:15 AM to 03:30 PM IST
A journal that speaks rupees, lots and STT.
A spreadsheet forgets. A journal built for US equities does not know what a lot is, or why your net P&L is smaller than your gross. TradeBook is built around Indian market structure, not translated into it.

Four desks. One review habit.
The same journal, weighted differently depending on how you trade. Here is the part of it you will actually live in.
The intraday trader
20 trades a day, and no memory of the first five
Volume hides the leak. The account bleeds from three repeated behaviours you cannot see while the tape is moving.
- Discipline Monitor stops the second revenge entry
- Risk Guardian locks the day at your loss limit
- Early vs late session win rates, computed for you
- Auto-Journal writes the review you would have skipped
The swing trader
Positions held for candles, not minutes
Few trades, long gaps, and no way to tell whether the setup works or the market simply trended.
- Playbook expectancy per setup — proven only at 3+ trades
- Alerts with chaining on your planned levels
- Planned vs realised R:R, with your biggest breaches ranked
- Watchlists with live quotes for what you are stalking
The F&O trader
High turnover, and expensive to get wrong
Gross P&L flatters you. The charge stack and the tax treatment are where the year is actually decided.
- STT/CTT, exchange fees, SEBI turnover fee, GST and stamp duty itemised
- F&O and MCX treated as non-speculative business income at your slab
- Turnover reported against the audit threshold
- Risk of ruin run on your own win rate and payoff
The Research Analyst or educator
Your record is your product
Followers deserve a track record built from real trades, and your compliance obligations do not pause for a screenshot.
- Publish a call — entry zone, stop, targets, one-line view
- Updates thread under the original call automatically
- Registration and disclaimer appended to every card
- Telegram routing to multiple channels with a delivery log
What connects today, and what doesn't yet.
Six connections work right now. Seven are on the roadmap and are labelled that way inside the app too — a roadmap tile in Settings writes nothing and says so.

RoadmapLong-context journal review
Trading with a broker on the roadmap list? Its CSV export maps into the trade importer today — the sync is the convenience, the journal is the product. BSE-only scrips arrive the same way, or through broker sync.
Your journal. Literally yours.
A trading journal is the most sensitive file a trader owns — every position, every size, every mistake. So the strongest privacy setting here is not a policy, it is an architecture: TradeBook can run without ever contacting a server.
Local-only mode
Pick local storage at signup and the whole app runs against your browser's own database. No account row, no upload, no sync — your trades never leave the machine you typed them on.
Row-level security on every table
If you do use the cloud, isolation is enforced by the database, not by a check in application code that someone can forget. A query for another trader's rows returns nothing.
Export everything, any time
Every trade, note, tag and journal entry exports in full. Leaving should cost you one click, and it does — that is the only reason to trust a journal with years of your history.
The analytics need no AI at all
The discipline score, the mistake pricing, the risk-of-ruin simulation and the behavioural flags are arithmetic on your own trades, computed in your own browser. Language-model features sit on top, are opt-in, and mostly run on a provider key you supply.
Backups you control
In local-only mode, backups go to your own Google Drive on your command. It is your file, in your account, restorable by you.
It does not trade for you
TradeBook records, analyses and suggests. It is not an execution engine — there is no autonomous paper or live executor behind this product, and connecting a broker is opt-in and only for pulling your fills in.
Cloud or local — you decide at signup, and you can see the difference
Cloud mode
Sign in from any device, sync across phone and desktop, connect Dhan and Telegram, and let scheduled reports run. Every table is behind row-level security.
Local-only mode
One browser, one database, nothing transmitted. You trade off multi-device sync and the server-side integrations — and in exchange nobody, including us, can read your book.
Publish calls.
Let the record speak.
Built by a SEBI-registered Research Analyst for analysts. Every call is backed by a real journal trade, so your public hit-rate is generated from data — not claims.
Illustrative example — not a real call
Sample layout only. The scrip is fictitious, the levels are placeholders, and no outcome is shown or implied.
Post a Call in seconds
Instrument, entry zone, stop-loss, targets and a one-line view — previewed, then published to your Telegram channel.
Updates post themselves
Stop-loss revisions, partial bookings and target hits thread under the original call automatically — followers see the full story.
