Auto-import from TradeLocker
XELL Journal can pull closed trades from a TradeLocker account — at a broker or a prop firm — by itself. Trades come with their stop and take, partial closes become one trade, repeats are skipped.
What you need
- XELL Journal 0.4.8 or later.
- Your TradeLocker web terminal login: e-mail, password and server.
- Whether the account is on the demo server (demo and most challenges) or live.
Connecting
Find the server
Open your broker's or prop firm's TradeLocker web terminal. Besides e-mail and password, the sign-in page has a Server field — usually the broker's name. Write it down exactly as shown.
Open auto-import in the journal
In XELL Journal: Account → Auto-import → TradeLocker. “How to connect” shows these same steps in the app.
Sign in
Enter the e-mail, password and server, pick demo or live (like the Demo / Live switch on the TradeLocker sign-in page) and press Sign in.
Pick the accounts
A list of TradeLocker accounts appears. Pick one, and the journal account its trades go to (for example, an account with a prop-firm template).
Sync
Press Sync now — closed trades show up in the journal marked “import”. Turn on Sync by itself, and while the app is open new trades arrive every 5–60 minutes.
Security
- The journal only reads the order history: it places, changes and closes nothing.
- The password is kept encrypted by the system (Keychain on a Mac, DPAPI on Windows) only on your computer and is sent only to TradeLocker. It never reaches our servers.
- TradeLocker has no read-only keys — it signs in with the terminal password. If you prefer not to keep it in the journal, export the history to CSV and use the auto-import folder.
- Sign out in the same block removes the saved login.
Troubleshooting
- “TradeLocker did not accept the login” — check the e-mail, password, server (to the letter) and demo / live.
- “TradeLocker refused access to this account” — the broker or prop firm closed the API for its accounts. That is the firm's call, not the journal's.
- No trades — only closed positions come in; open ones arrive once closed.
- What came in and any errors are in Auto-import → Import log. If something is off, write on Discord or by e-mail.
