A journal that keeps you honest

Candlesurge is a trading journal built for the record. Every trade you take is logged with the details that actually mattered — the instrument, direction, entry, stop loss and take profit, the market it traded on, a chart screenshot and a few lines about what you were thinking. When the trade resolves you mark it a win or a loss, and Candlesurge works out the risk-to-reward you planned and the cumulative R you have banked. Win rate, open positions and your equity curve update as you go, so your edge — and your leaks — become visible instead of remembered. A calendar view shows which days you traded and how each one went, so streaks and slumps stop being a mystery.

Trades live inside journals, so your crypto book stays separate from your forex and futures trades. Every journal has its own public link — share one with a mentor, a prop firm or a trading community, or flip it private with a single switch. You decide what is public: a private journal keeps its trades to yourself. When you want something to keep, each journal exports its progress as a designed PDF report.

Candlesurge is also a place to find other traders. Discover gathers public journals from across the community and filters them by market, so you can see how someone actually trades instead of how they say they trade. Like what you see, and you can message that trader straight from their journal — the conversation continues in your Messages inbox, where replies are waiting whenever you want them.

Candlesurge is for anyone who takes trading seriously enough to write it down: crypto and forex traders, futures and index traders, beginners building the habit of reviewing every decision, and experienced traders who want an honest, shareable record of their performance. It works for any market, any timeframe, and any size of account.

Candlesurge is an independent project, built and maintained by a small team of traders and developers who wanted a journal they would actually keep using. It is not a broker and never touches your funds or your accounts — it is a notebook. Our only aim is that it stays fast, keeps your data private where it should be, and is useful every single day.
