Introducing EdgeCrafter
2026-02-07When I started trading, I thought it was inevitable that I would need to set aside $200-$300 per year for a subscription to a trading journal if I wanted to track my trades and learn which patterns worked. I almost did. But my aversion to subscriptions led me to a revelation:
Maybe I can build one.
It has now been several months since that revelation, and build one I have. Introducing EdgeCrafter, a free, open-source, private, offline trading journal that works on Linux, macOS, and Windows.EdgeCrafter's features include:
- 100% free of cost, free to do what you want with, and free of ads
- Automatically syncs with IBKR (more brokers coming soon)
- Manually input trades
- View all kinds of statistics based on your trading
- Check your P&L each day at a quick glance using the calendar view
- Add strategies and link them to your trades to see stats based on strategy
- Works offline
- It's open-source, so you can request a feature or create one yourself!
EdgeCrafter is available now, so download it for free and give it a try! It may end up saving you a bunch of money if you already have a trading journal subscription.
