How to Export
Go to the Trades Page
Click Trades in the sidebar to open the trade table.
Click Export
Look for the Export or Download CSV button in the toolbar above the trade table. Click it to begin the download.
Save the File
Your browser will download a .csv file containing all of your trades. The file is named with today's date for easy reference.
What's Included in the Export
The exported CSV contains one row per trade with the following columns:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| ticker | Traded symbol (e.g. NQ, ES, AAPL) |
| direction | long or short |
| enterPrice | Average entry price |
| exitPrice | Average exit price |
| quantity | Number of contracts or shares |
| enterTime | Entry timestamp (ISO 8601) |
| exitTime | Exit timestamp (ISO 8601) |
| pl | P&L as recorded (manual override if set, otherwise calculated) |
| tags | Comma-separated list of tag names |
| notes | Trade notes (quoted if contains commas) |
| strategy | Assigned strategy name, if any |
Screenshot image data is not included in the CSV export. Screenshots are stored on the server and remain accessible through the app.
Using the Export with Excel or Google Sheets
Opening in Excel
In Excel, go to File → Open and select the CSV file. When the Text Import Wizard appears, select Delimited, set the delimiter to Comma, and set date columns (enterTime, exitTime) to Text format to preserve the ISO 8601 format.
Opening in Google Sheets
In Google Sheets, go to File → Import, upload the CSV, and choose Comma as the separator. Google Sheets handles ISO dates more reliably than Excel and usually doesn't require extra formatting steps.
Backing Up Your Data
We recommend exporting your trade history periodically as a personal backup. Monthly exports are a good habit — store them in a folder on your computer or cloud storage.
The export format is identical to the import format, so a backup file can be re-imported into RR Metrics at any time if needed.
