What a trading journal is
A trading journal is the tool that separates amateur traders from professionals. Logging every trade, reviewing your equity curve, identifying your best hours and worst days turns gut feelings into data-driven decisions. Pipveu automates that work: it syncs your trades from NinjaTrader, calculates 15+ performance metrics and surfaces patterns that a spreadsheet would never expose.
Unlike a generic journal, Pipveu is built for futures traders who run prop firm accounts. It detects your accounts automatically, understands the typical rules of each firm (trailing MDD, daily loss limit, profit target) and alerts you before breaking a limit. No manual calculations, no CSV exports.
How Pipveu works in 3 steps
Connect NinjaTrader
Pick your NinjaTrader.sqlite file right from the browser using the File System Access API. No plugins, no addons, no manual exports. One click and you're connected for good.
Pipveu syncs automatically
Every 5 minutes we read your new trades straight from the database. We detect prop firm accounts, classify them by type (evaluation, funded, live) and compute metrics like win rate, profit factor, MDD, Sharpe and Sortino.
Analyze, decide, improve
Open the dashboard, review your equity curve, check asset correlations, plan the economic calendar and see the real-time status of each prop firm account. Everything from a single screen.

Real NinjaTrader integration
Pipveu reads your NinjaTrader 8 SQLite database directly. No CSV exports, no screenshots, no manual copying. Works with the datafeeds supported by NinjaTrader. The connection stays alive while the browser keeps permission: you can close Pipveu, reopen it tomorrow and new trades will appear without you touching anything. For Firefox and Safari there is a manual upload option that also imports every trade.

Integrated economic calendar with USDA and CFTC
Our economic calendar blends high-impact events from Investing.com, NASDAQ earnings ranked by market cap, USDA reports with NASS data and CFTC COT speculative positions. You'll know when NFP is coming, when a crop report drops, or when large speculators shift their net positions. Unique: no other futures trading journal bundles this kind of macro data.
Correlations between 30 assets in real time
If you trade ES, NQ, GC or CL, knowing how your instruments correlate is critical to avoid stacking duplicate risk. Pipveu computes R² correlations between 30 financial instruments with daily data from Yahoo Finance, across 30, 60, 90, 120 and 180-day windows. It classifies relationships as twins (high risk), independent (good for diversification), mirror (natural hedges) and inverse. A feature you would pay extra for anywhere else.
Why Pipveu, not another journal
Traditional trading journals were designed for stocks 10 years ago. Pipveu was built for how futures traders operate today.
Built for futures and prop firms
Most journals are built for stocks — they don't understand contracts, rollover or prop firm rules. Pipveu works directly with your prop firm accounts and understands trailing MDD, DLL and profit targets.
Browser-native sync
No installations, no NinjaTrader addons, no exporting CSVs every time. Connect your database once and Pipveu syncs automatically every 5 minutes, across multiple accounts.
Your limits, in real time
Trailing MDD, daily loss limit and profit target for all your accounts in a single view. See how much you have left before breaking a rule, on each account, without opening spreadsheets.
Why Pipveu beats a spreadsheet or a generic journal
A spreadsheet falls short within a month: it doesn't know contract rollovers, it doesn't update itself, it doesn't flag when you're creeping toward trailing MDD. Generic trading journals were built for stock traders; adding futures is a workaround. Pipveu was born for futures and prop firms from the first commit.
For $29 a month (14-day free trial) you get auto-sync, 15+ metrics, prop firm management, correlations, economic calendar and trading vacations planner. Other journals charge $29-$80 a month for versions without prop firm support or macro data. Cancel whenever you want.
