Built for consistency, not just green days

Most journals stop at wins and losses, but passing an evaluation and keeping a funded account is really about consistency and staying inside the rules. Astro Trade is built to show you whether your trading is steady and repeatable, the kind that holds up over a challenge, rather than one good day carrying a messy week.

It is a review tool, not a rules bot. Astro Trade does not place trades or police your account; it gives you a clear read on your behavior so you can keep yourself inside the lines.

See your drawdown, not just your P&L

Set your account's starting balance and Astro Trade tracks your equity properly: max drawdown in both dollars and percent, plus recovery factor, so you can see how deep your worst stretch went and how well you climbed back out.

Over a longer record it also surfaces a K-Ratio for how steadily your equity grew, which is exactly the steadiness most evaluations are really testing for.

Review your days, not just your trades

Evaluations are judged day by day, so Astro Trade lets you review the same way. Look at your results day by day to see where discipline held and where it slipped, instead of only reading a single all-time number.

Tag the setups you trade, group them into playbooks, and add a short reflection when a day or a trade is worth a note, so the lesson stays attached to the day it happened.

Connect the platform your evaluation runs on

Many prop firm evaluations run on MetaTrader 5 or TradeLocker, and Astro Trade syncs from both, so your challenge trades come in automatically instead of being retyped from a statement. Connect with read-only credentials; the connection reads your trade history and never trades for you.

Broker connection is the premium part; the core journal stays free, so you can start reviewing before you connect anything.

Drawdown that's real

Set a starting balance and Astro Trade tracks max drawdown in dollars and percent, plus recovery factor.

Steadiness over time

A K-Ratio surfaces how steadily your equity grew over a longer record, the consistency evaluations test for.

Day-by-day review

Look at your results and behavior day by day, not just as one all-time number.

Sync from MT5 or TradeLocker

Many evaluations run on MetaTrader 5 or TradeLocker; connect with read-only access and trades sync in. Broker sync is premium.

Setups, playbooks, reflections

Track which setups help or hurt your consistency, and note the days worth remembering.

A review tool, not a rules bot

Astro Trade shows your behavior so you can stay inside the rules; it never places or blocks trades.

One journal, web and iOS.

Your evaluation travels with you. Web and iOS share one account and the same trades, so you can check the day's drawdown from your phone before you take the next trade.

Common questions.

Is Astro Trade a good journal for prop firm traders?

Yes. Astro Trade focuses on the things evaluations actually test, drawdown and consistency, with real equity metrics, day-by-day review, and setup tracking, alongside automatic sync from MetaTrader 5 and TradeLocker.

Does it track drawdown?

Yes. Once you set your account's starting balance, Astro Trade shows your max drawdown in dollars and percent, plus recovery factor, and a K-Ratio over a longer record.

Does it know my firm's specific rules?

No, and that is deliberate. Astro Trade is a review journal, not a rules bot: it shows your drawdown and daily behavior clearly so you can stay inside your firm's limits, but it does not place trades or enforce a particular firm's ruleset.

Can I connect my evaluation account?

If your evaluation runs on MetaTrader 5 or TradeLocker, you can connect it with read-only credentials and your trades sync in automatically. Broker connection is a premium feature; the core journal is free.

Can I check my evaluation from my iPhone?

Yes. The web and iOS apps share one account and the same trades, so the day's drawdown and your notes are in both places.
