Hi every one,
I post this to let you know, as the title mentions it, that I made a trading diary, with google documents tool. This a generic spreadsheet which allows any trader to manage his trading (his risk, his pnl, his opened position, the orders...) with a trding diary. Every trader,should have one, and I mad mine with google docs. At least you must have an account to acces this spreadsheet.
Anyway, I made this because of several points:
-Generally, you don't trade from the exact same place every time. So the trading diary must be accessible from anywhere. The ftp was my first idea, but not very easy to update the file from anywhere.
-So I try a blog, but this solution was not the easiest one. To greedy speaking in terme of time.
-Then, creating a excel file, on a single computer, updated with every position, was boring to use. To update mainly.
So the solution I found, is the online document management services such as google or msn. I have chosen Google, and started to manage my deals with a spreadsheet created for this purpose.
This spreadsheet is called "Trading Diary". You can easily find it docs.google.com, if ever you have an account. Which is the only condition you can't by pass. Their are workaround but so far, this would be the easiest way.
I only can give you how to find this spreadsheet, I can't provide any link!
So, use this to manage your deals.
Cheers
