Highlights

Auto-syncs any MT4 broker

Connect MT4 once with your account number and read-only investor password. Every fill (forex, indices, metals, CFDs) is imported within seconds. Works with any MT4 broker, retail or prop firm.

AI tagging and leak detection

Every trade gets auto-tagged by setup, session, and outcome. The AI surfaces patterns in your wins and losses. Revenge trading, oversized losers, breaking your own rules. That you cannot see in a raw MT4 history export.

Weekly AI session reviews

Every week, the same model that analyzes your charts writes a plain-English review of your MT4 trading: what paid, what did not, what to fix. The output is the weekly review the average MT4 trader skips.

Overview

What is an MT4 trading journal?

An MT4 trading journal is a trade log that connects directly to a trader's MetaTrader 4 account and records every fill (entry, exit, partial close, swap, commission, magic number) so the trader can review performance honestly. MT4's Account History tab shows raw numbers; a real journal layers setup tags, behavioral context, and AI-written reviews on top.

Why MT4 statements alone are not a journal

Most MT4 traders eventually export a statement HTML to Excel, sort by symbol, and call it a journal. The statement shows what happened. It does not tell you which setup paid, which session of the day you lose most consistently, which size jump killed your edge, or which behavioral leak ate this month's profit. A real journal is built around answering those questions automatically.

How Profit AI's MT4 journal works

  • Connect your MT4 account once with the account number and read-only investor password. No active credentials are stored, no execution access requested.
  • Every fill, past and live, is imported within seconds. Net P&L is calculated correctly across swap and commission.
  • The AI tags each trade by setup, session, and outcome based on the chart context at entry.
  • The dashboard surfaces leaks: oversized losers, revenge trades, rule violations, win-rate by session, win-rate by setup.
  • Every week the AI writes a plain-English session review, plus a 0–100 Trader Score that summarizes the trend.

Built for prop-firm MT4 accounts

Many prop firms still run on MT4. Profit AI's MT4 journal layers live prop-firm rule monitoring on top: max daily loss, trailing drawdown, consistency. Whether the underlying account is FTMO, FundingPips, or any other MT4 prop, Profit AI tracks every rule in real time and warns the trader before a violation. MT4 and MT5 accounts can be mixed in one dashboard for traders running both.
