What is Active Backtesting?
Active Backtesting is a method where you annotate each setup directly on your chart. Your entry, stop loss, take profit, and why you'd take the trade. The act of writing forces you to engage with the price action, not just click through candles.
Then you screenshot and move on. TradeJou.nl extracts the data automatically. You get the learning benefit of annotation without the tedious data entry that makes backtesting feel like a chore.
The Real Problem
Why Most Traders Never Become Profitable
It's not your strategy. It's that you skip the one thing that would actually help you improve.
You're Guessing, Not Trading
Without a journal, you have no idea which setups actually work for you. You're making decisions based on feelings, not data.
Same Mistakes, Different Day
That FOMO entry that blew your account? You did it last month too. And the month before. Without records, you can't see the patterns.
Years of Screen Time, No Edge
You've watched thousands of candles. Read the books. Taken the courses. But you still can't answer: what's YOUR edge?
“Everyone knows they should journal. Almost nobody does. Because it's tedious. What if it wasn't?”
The Solution
Journaling So Easy You'll Actually Do It
Same workflow for backtesting and live trades. Build the habit with historical data, then carry it into real trading.
Screenshot. Done.
Annotate your chart in TradingView like you already do. Screenshot it. We extract entry, stop loss, take profit, outcome and any anotations automatically.
We Do the Boring Part
You stay focused on finding setups. No spreadsheets. No manual data entry. TradeJour.nl reads and logs everything.
Finally See Your Patterns
After 50 trades, you'll know your actual win rate. After 100, which setups work best. After 200, you'll have real edge—backed by data.

Real Results
Traders Who Finally Stuck With Journaling
The difference isn't discipline. It's removing the friction.
“I've tried Notion, spreadsheets, even paid journals. Always quit after a week. TradeJour.nl is the first one that stuck because there's literally nothing to type.”
Marcus T.
Forex Trader
“Finally passed my FTMO challenge on attempt #4. The difference? I could actually see which setups were killing my account. Turns out it was always the same pattern.”
Sarah K.
Prop Firm Trader
“200 backtested trades in my first month. Before this I maybe logged 20 in a year. Screenshot workflow is a game changer for building volume.”

“I knew I should be backtesting more, but I kept putting it off. The thought of retyping all that data into a spreadsheet killed my motivation before I even started. I built TradeJou.nl so that backtesting could finally be as simple as annotate, screenshot, done.”
