What's New

Features, improvements, and fixes shipped to TickerScribe.

Latest
Launch

A new release rhythm — and a blog to go with it

TickerScribe now ships almost every day — and we won't ping you for every change. The day-to-day goes out on X; each batched release gets a full write-up on the new blog, and What's New will point you to it right here.

We release continuously — often more than once a day. A notification for every change would just be clutter, so we've split things by channel: the moment-to-moment goes out on X as it ships, and a run of releases gets gathered into one proper write-up on the blog.

Going forward, What's New points you to each new release post rather than every small tweak — less noise, more signal. First up: the release cadence post. For the day-to-day, follow us on X.

The part of your journal that looks ahead

A journal records what already happened — and most days, you never open it again. Market Today is the opposite: the moment you log in, the day's market read is sitting next to your book — sentiment, volatility and direction, the news touching your tickers, and where every open position stands right now.

A trading journal is usually a rear-view mirror: you fill it in, then forget it. But the moment you actually need it is before the next trade, not after it. Market Today turns the mirror to face forward.

Open it and the day is right there: how fearful or greedy the crowd is, how jumpy prices are, which way the majors are leaning — each a live tile that keeps refreshing through the session. A read on the day, at a glance.

Underneath sits your book, marked to the market as it moves — every open position showing what it's worth right now, give or take the fifteen-minute quote delay. Where you stand today is a number, not a hunch.

And the news comes pre-narrowed to what actually moves you — only the headlines touching the names you hold, refreshed through the day; tap a ticker to filter to just one. Below it all, your own history even shows how you've fared in markets like today's. Your journal, finally working for you before the trade instead of after it.

Sentiment, volatility and direction — a live read on the day, every session.

Feature

Unrealized P&L on your open stocks, ticker suggestions, and company names

Delayed quotes

Your open stock positions now carry an unrealized P&L, priced off market quotes — in the open-positions list and the stocks table. Plus: the ticker box suggests symbols as you type, and company names now sit under the ticker across the app.

Every open stock position now shows what it's worth right now and how far it's moved — an unrealized P&L that refreshes as new quotes come in, both in your open-positions list and in the stocks table. Quotes are delayed by about 15 minutes.

The ticker field got smarter, too. Start typing a symbol and matching tickers appear as you go, each with its company name — so you pick the right one without leaving the keyboard.

And company names now sit right under the ticker wherever it shows up — tables, positions, quotes — so a screen full of symbols reads at a glance.

Feature

Import your tastytrade trades via CSV

Drop in tastytrade's transaction history exactly as it exports — the layout is recognized on upload, option symbols decode into real strikes and expirations, partial fills of one order merge into a single trade, and commissions and fees fold into your per-trade costs.

Auto-detected brokertastytrade

TickerScribe now supports importing your trades from tastytrade via CSV. From Account → History, export your transaction history, drop it in, and it's recognized automatically — your options and stock trades come across ready to journal, no file cleanup or column mapping needed. Cash deposits, withdrawals, and dividends come across too.

When a single order fills in several pieces, those rows merge back into one trade at the value-weighted price — so your journal reads the way you traded, not the way it executed. And because every trade carries a content fingerprint, re-importing is safe: overlapping exports are flagged as duplicates on the preview step and skipped. The full walkthrough, step by step, lives in the tastytrade import guide.

Feature

Import your TradeStation trades via CSV

Drop in TradeStation's trades report exactly as it downloads — the layout is recognized on upload, compact option symbols decode into real strikes and expirations, and both fee columns fold into your per-trade costs.

Auto-detected brokerTradeStation

TickerScribe now supports importing your trades from TradeStation via CSV. Download the trades report, drop it in, and it's recognized automatically — your options and stock trades come across ready to journal, no file cleanup or column mapping needed.

TradeStation caps a single export at six months, so longer histories go in as one file per window — and because every trade carries a content fingerprint, overlapping ranges are safe: duplicates are flagged on the preview step and skipped. The full walkthrough, step by step, lives in the TradeStation import guide.

Feature

Journal the day, not just the trade

Your P&L says what happened — the daily journal says why. Mood, market notes, a pre-market plan and a post-close reflection, tags, and screenshots — a dated entry for every trading day, right beside your trades.

Every trading day gets one structured entry. Set a mood from Awful to Great, jot free-form market notes, and split the day into a Plan before the open and a Reflection after the close. Tag it by ticker or setup, and the whole journal filters down to just those days whenever you want to study a pattern.

Pin up to two screenshots to any entry — drag one in, browse, or paste straight from your clipboard the moment you grab it. Click to open it full-screen.

It all surfaces on your P&L calendar, too: journaled days are flagged, and clicking any day opens your entry beside that day's total and trade count — the context and the result, side by side.

Feature

Coming from another journal?

Already keep your trades in another journal? Now you can move them straight into TickerScribe. StonkJournal exports are recognized automatically; every other journal imports through the universal CSV mapper.

Auto-detected journalStonkJournal

If your trades already live in another journal, you don't have to leave that history behind — now you can bring it in, and how that works depends on the journal. StonkJournal exports are recognized the moment you drop them in. Any other journal — TraderSync, Edgewonk, and the like — imports through the universal CSV mapper: export a CSV, confirm the auto-suggested column matches once, and you're in.

StonkJournal is the first journal we recognize on upload, with more on the way — the auto-detected set keeps widening with every release. If you're weighing the move, here's an even-handed look at us as a free StonkJournal alternative — including where it still comes out ahead.

Import your trades

Beta

Bring your whole history in — major brokers are auto-detected on upload, and any other broker or journal imports through the universal CSV mapper.

Auto-detectedInteractive BrokersthinkorswimSchwabRobinhood

Drop in a file from a recognized broker and TickerScribe identifies the layout and maps every column for you — no setup. Any other broker or journal imports through the universal CSV mapper: export a CSV, confirm the auto-suggested matches once, and you're in. Multi-leg option strategies and stock lots rebuild automatically, and content-identical rows are flagged as duplicates before anything commits — so re-importing never doubles up.

Import is in beta. We're actively making detection more accurate, smoothing the rough edges, and adding more brokers — so coverage keeps widening and the flow gets more flawless with every release.

Feature

Your data is yours

Export your full history to a CSV anytime — and re-import it later, with multi-leg strategies and lot allocations rebuilt fresh. Your portfolio is portable.

Every export is a 100% backup — every trade, every leg, every cash entry. Pick everything, or just options, just stocks, just cash. The CSV is plain text — stash it on disk, in iCloud, on a thumb drive in a drawer.

Drop it back into the import wizard whenever. Multi-leg strategies are re-detected. Lot allocations rebuild against your cost-basis method. Content-identical rows are flagged as duplicates before anything commits, so a partial restore won't double up.

No lock-in. Archive a snapshot at year-end. Spin up a what-if account from last quarter's exits. Or import it anywhere you may need it.

Improvement

Small things matter

A handful of quality-of-life upgrades shipped together — faster date picking, two new performance columns, and bigger pages on the trackers.

Improvement

Feature

Dashboard 2.5 — Portfolio, Cash, and What's Expiring

Portfolio with own money and cash history, expiring flagged on Open Positions, multi-leg detail inline, and Hide Amounts for screen shares.

The Portfolio tile is now the headline — and it finally shows you what's yours versus what you've made. Your total breaks down into own money (every deposit and withdrawal you've logged) plus realized P&L, so you see growth separate from capital. A second row, Deployed, shows how much is tied up right now versus your peak usage, split by stocks and options. Log deposits and withdrawals right from the tile, or tap History to see the full ledger with dates, amounts, and notes.

Open Positions leads with what matters most — expiring contracts. A Next Expiry date sits in the header so you never miss a window, and an amber badge flags anything expiring within 7 days. Every leg shows up clearly: side, strike, premium, expiration. Iron Condors, Spreads, Strangles, Covered Calls — they're all readable inline without jumping to a separate view.

Performance got rebuilt to answer the question that matters. A new metrics row shows your Annual ROI, Win Rate, Avg Win, Avg Loss, Profit Factor, Avg Hold, Trade Count, and Days Active — broken out across All, Options, and Stocks side by side so you see at a glance where your returns come from and where they don't. And when you're showing someone your screen? Click the eye icon to hide every amount as asterisks while keeping percentages, ratios, and counts visible. Share the shape of your trading, not the numbers.

Feature

P&L Calendar 2.0 — Year Overview, New Metrics & Public Sharing

A 12-month year strip, eight monthly metrics, and shareable monthly snapshots with optional amount masking.

Your trading year now reads at a glance. A 12-month strip up top tints each month by its net P&L — green stretches, red drawdowns, the months you sat out — so the shape of the year shows up the moment you open the calendar. Tap any month to jump straight there, or scrub forward and back through your full history one year at a time.

Above the heatmap, eight monthly metrics that actually answer questions: total P&L, best day, worst day, most active day, average daily P&L, win rate, and the green/red split of trading days. Flip between All, Stocks, and Options at the top and the whole page repaints to match — heatmap, weekly summaries, and metrics all stay in sync.

And every month is shareable now. Hit Share, preview the page, and publish a public read-only link — with polished social-image previews when posted to X, Reddit, Facebook, or Telegram. Want to share the shape without the size? Flip Hide amounts and every figure renders as ••• while the colors and counts stay intact. Settings → Shared calendars lists every link you've ever published with its current view count, and one click takes any of them offline immediately.

In-App Notifications — Updates, Reactions & Feature Requests

See what just shipped, tell us what you think with one click, and suggest what's next — without leaving the app.

We ship a lot, and we want you to actually see it. Open the notifications drawer from the sidebar to scroll through the latest features, improvements, and fixes — straight from the app, no newsletter to dig through, no separate page to remember to visit. New updates highlight themselves with a small dot on the bell icon, so you'll know when there's something fresh.

Every update has reactions — drop a thumbs-up if you love it, a thumbs-down if it missed the mark, or anything in between. We read all of it. There's also a Suggest a Feature button right there: one click, type what you need, and we'll see it the moment you hit send. It lands directly in front of us and carries real weight when we decide what's next.

Chat With Us — Without Leaving the App

Real-time support drawer right inside the app — no email round-trips.

We get it — email isn't always the best move for a quick "is this a bug or am I doing this wrong?" question. So we built chat right into the app. Open the drawer from the sidebar, type your message, and we'll get back to you in real time.

Real humans on the other end (yes, we're tired of bots too). Bug reports, feature requests, weird edge cases, sanity checks — anything goes. A small red dot on the chat icon lets you know when there's a reply waiting, so you don't have to keep checking.

Feature

Log Cash Deposits & Withdrawals

Cash movements now live alongside trades — no more drifting allocation %.

You can now log cash movements — every deposit and withdrawal is recorded alongside your trades so your portfolio balance stays accurate without manual edits. No more guessing at a number and watching allocation % drift when you top up or pull cash out.

Add a transaction from the dashboard's Quick Actions or from Settings → Manage cash. Backdating is supported, so you can catch up on past deposits any time. Edit or delete entries later without affecting your P&L math — trade-derived ledger entries stay immutable.

Feature

Dashboard 2.0 — Fully Interactive

Performance, open risk, capital, recent activity, and quick actions in one place.

Dashboard 2.0 brings performance, open risk, capital usage, recent activity, and quick actions into one place. Switch between All, Stocks, and Options, change the time period, and get the full picture without bouncing across the app.

When you want detail, the dashboard opens it up. On desktop, click a day on the P&L chart to inspect the activity behind it. Open Positions shows active option positions with strategy labels, strikes, and expirations, plus stock lots that are still open. Win Rate breaks out options and stocks so you can see where the results come from.

It also shortens the path from review to action. Log a stock trade, single-leg option, multi-leg position, or start from Strategy Picker without leaving the page. Capital Deployed shows current vs. peak usage and asset split, and it can track portfolio thresholds when you set a portfolio balance. Expiring options are surfaced directly inside Open Positions.

Tooltip alignment on Open Positions hover

Tooltip now stays inside the viewport when hovering rows near the right edge.

Feature

Multi-Account Support

Up to three fully isolated accounts under one login.

Track a paper-trading account alongside your real one. Run USD and EUR portfolios side by side. Separate Roth IRA from your taxable brokerage. Up to three accounts under one login, each with its own trades, P&L, calendar, and dashboard — completely isolated.

Switch accounts from the header in one click. Currency, cost basis method, portfolio balance, position locking — everything is per-account, so each portfolio works fully independently, exactly the way you need it to.

Feature

Strategy Picker with Payoff Diagrams

Visual overview of every structure with payoff diagrams and outlook filters.

A new strategy picker gives you a visual overview of every available structure before you commit. Filter by market outlook — bullish, bearish, or neutral — and each card shows the strategy name, direction arrow, a short explanation, and a payoff diagram so you can confirm the risk profile at a glance.

Pick any strategy to jump straight into the multi-leg form with the right template loaded — legs, types, and sync rules pre-filled. No manual setup, no guesswork.

Feature

Favorite Strategies

Star your go-to templates and they'll pin to the top of the picker.

You can now save your go-to strategies as favorites. Star any template — iron condor, bear call spread, butterfly, or any other — and it moves to the top of the strategy picker. No more scrolling through the full list every time you open a new multi-leg position.

Open the New Multi-Leg Position dialog, click the strategy dropdown, and your favorites appear first. One click to select, and the form pre-fills with the right structure. Unfavorite just as easily if your playbook changes.

Feature

Multi-Leg Strategy Intelligence

Strategy-aware multi-leg form with live detection and trade summary.

Multi-leg entries are now strategy-aware. Select a template — iron condor, butterfly, vertical spread, calendar, diagonal, or any other common structure — and the form links the fields that should stay in sync: expirations for spreads, strikes for straddles, contracts across all legs. Need to deviate? Override any linked field with a single click.

Live strategy detection identifies your position as you fill in the legs and keeps everything in sync automatically. A Trade Summary appears with Max Win, Max Loss, and Estimated Margin — calculated the same way your broker does, including commission impact.

Strategy descriptions and direction labels help you confirm you're building the right structure. Less time double-checking, more confidence when logging your trades.

Feature

Wheel Strategy — Full Cycle Tracking

Sells, assignments, covered calls, and called-away shares — all auditable.

The wheel strategy now tracks end-to-end — from selling puts through assignment to selling covered calls and shares being called away. Every step creates real, auditable records.

When a put is assigned, a stock BUY trade is created automatically with the correct cost basis. When shares are called away via a covered call, a SELL trade is created with lot allocations, realized P&L, and the position locks itself. The calendar, dashboard, recent trades, analysis — every screen shows the right numbers without manual entry.

Option P&L and stock P&L are now cleanly separated. Premium collected stays in your options bucket. Share appreciation or loss stays in your stocks bucket. No double-counting, no leaking between the two. Your ledger is the single source of truth — as it should be.

Feature

Ticker Report

Pivot the entire journal around a single symbol — stocks and options.

Your journal shows everything — now you can pivot around a single symbol. Pick any ticker and see statistics, individual trades, price ranges, and strategy breakdowns for both options and stocks.

For options: closed chains, strategy breakdown by win rate, average premium, hold time, and total P&L per strategy type. For stocks: total P&L, win rate, average hold time, largest win and loss, plus Buy and Sell Zones showing where your entries and exits concentrate.

Every number comes straight from the ledger — the same source of truth used across your journal, calendar, and dashboard. No separate formulas, no discrepancies.

Feature

Greeks & IV Tracking

Log Delta, Theta, Gamma, Vega, and IV at open and close.

You can now track Greeks and Implied Volatility on your option trades.

Log Delta, Theta, Gamma, Vega, and IV for each trade. Track values at both open and close to see how your positions evolved. All columns are sortable and can be shown or hidden via the new column visibility selector.

Whether you're monitoring time decay, volatility exposure, or directional risk — it's all in one place now.

Feature

Multi-Dimensional Trade Analysis

Price ranges, day-of-week, time-of-day, and overall metrics in one place.

Break down your trading performance across multiple dimensions — all in one place.

Price Range Analysis — see where your entries and exits cluster and spot the price zones where you perform best. Day of Week P&L — find which days are most profitable and which you should sit out. Time of Day Breakdown — discover your optimal trading window by hour. Overall Performance Metrics — win rate, average P&L, cumulative charts, your edge quantified.

Works for both options and stock trades. As always, completely free.
