Frequently asked questions
Answers about importing, your Journal and reviewing your trades.
Do I need to connect my broker?
No. You export a compatible CSV yourself and do not share broker credentials with NQ Trades Lab.
Does every NinjaTrader 8 CSV work?
Not necessarily. Format and columns must be compatible with the importer; check detected trades before saving.
Where is the Journal stored?
In the Notion workspace you authorize. CSV processing happens locally in your browser.
