Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one’s financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program despite trading losses are material points that can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program that cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
Export closed futures trades from DeepCharts Strategy Report as CSV. Journalit's DeepCharts adapter reads the individual trade records in the report's Trade List, including the broker-reported realised P&L.
Bottom line
Generate a Strategy Report for the right broker, account, dates, and symbols. Then open Trade List, choose Export CSV, and import the original file with the DeepCharts adapter.
Journalit expects the CSV created from DeepCharts Strategy Report, not an orders window or a performance summary.
Open Trade List before exporting so the file contains individual closed trades rather than aggregate report figures.
Choose DeepCharts in Trade Import. The adapter interprets signed quantity, closed-trade timing, prices, and the reported P&L.
Import the downloaded CSV directly. Do not change its headers, delimiters, timestamps, or numeric values in a spreadsheet.

Most common mistake
The CSV must include the Symbol column and the entry and exit columns listed above.
A Strategy Performance summary is not a substitute for the Trade List export.
In DeepCharts, open the Trading menu and select Strategy Report.
Select the broker connection and account whose closed trades you want to import. Check this carefully when you have both simulation and live accounts.
Use the report controls to choose the date range and symbols you want to include. Start with a short, known range if you are validating the import for the first time.
Click Generate Report, then open the Trade List tab. Confirm that it shows the completed trades you expect before downloading anything.
Click Export CSV and save the downloaded file without opening or editing it in a spreadsheet.
In Journalit, open Trade Import, choose DeepCharts as the broker, select the account, and upload the CSV.
Journalit then checks the file and shows a preview before anything is added: how many trades it found, possible duplicates, and any rows it skipped, with the reason.
Importing is a Pro feature
With a free Journalit account you can upload this file and preview every trade before anything is written to your journal. Adding the trades needs Pro. Follow the upload, review and import steps, or see what Trade Import supports.
The file came from DeepCharts Strategy Report, with Trade List selected.
The CSV includes Symbol, Quantity, entry and exit timestamps, entry and exit prices, and ProfitLoss.
The report filters include the sessions you want to review and exclude any account history you do not want to import.
Choose the Journalit import time zone that matches the timestamps displayed by DeepCharts before confirming the preview.
