Free MT4 & MT5 statement analyzer and trade journal

Yes. Every feature on this page is free, with no account, no trial clock and no feature held back for a paid tier. There is nothing to sign up for — you open the analyzer, drop a file in, and it works.

The reason it can stay free is architectural: TapeSheet has no servers to pay for. Parsing, metrics and storage all run on your own device, so a thousand new users cost about the same as one.

Honest answer: eventually, ads on the content pages — guides, calculators and explainers like the ones in the Guides menu. Never inside your data. There are no ads in the analyzer, the dashboard, the journal or the prop tracker, and there never will be.

Not yet, though. No advertisement is served anywhere on the site and nothing is earned from one. An application to Google AdSense is under review, and while it is, the AdSense script is loaded on content pages so Google can verify the site — the dashed boxes you see are still placeholders. It is not loaded in the analyzer, the dashboard, the journal or the prop tracker. The privacy policy describes exactly what that script means for you.

The HTML statements MetaTrader saves itself: MT4 Save as Report and Save as Detailed Report, and MT5 Report → HTML. Files arrive as .htm or .html.

Broker-customised templates, comma decimal separators, non-breaking-space thousands and non-UTF-8 encodings (including windows-1251 Cyrillic) are handled. MT5 reports without a Position column are reconstructed FIFO into whole positions, including partial closes. If a file does not parse, TapeSheet tells you what it looked for instead of failing silently.

Your statement is read with the browser’s own file API and parsed in a DOMParser on your device. It is not uploaded to TapeSheet, because there is nowhere to upload it to — TapeSheet has no backend that processes statements, no database of them and no account system.

You do not have to take that on faith. Open DevTools, switch to the Network tab, and load your file: loading it makes no outbound request. You can also disconnect from the internet entirely and the analyzer keeps working.

The website around the analyzer is a different matter: it is served by a CDN, and content pages may carry advertising in future. The privacy policy keeps the two halves separate.

Not yet. TapeSheet v1 is deliberately MetaTrader-only: MT4 and MT5 statement HTML. Doing one format properly across hundreds of broker template variants is a bigger job than it looks, and a parser that half-works is worse than none.

cTrader and generic CSV import are the most likely next formats. Equities and futures platforms are further out.

The prop-firm tracker lets you enter an account size, profit target, daily-loss limit, maximum drawdown (static or trailing) and minimum trading days, then replays your statement day by day against those rules.

It is a retroactive simulation of your own history — useful for asking “would last month have passed?” before you pay for an evaluation. It is not affiliated with any firm and it is not a live monitor: it reads the file you give it, and a statement only contains closed-trade balances, not intraday equity.

Settings → Export writes a single JSON file containing your dataset, journal entries, tags and settings. Keep it anywhere you keep files. Settings → Import reads it back, on this machine or another one.

This matters because your journal lives in your browser’s IndexedDB storage. Clearing site data, using private browsing, or a browser that evicts storage under pressure will remove it. Export is the backup — there is no cloud copy to fall back on, by design.

No. TapeSheet never asks for broker credentials, investor passwords, API keys or MetaTrader logins, and it has no way to connect to a trading account. The only thing it ever reads is the report file you chose yourself.
