A prop firm trading journal that keeps every evaluation in one vault.

Yes. Prop firm challenges are judged on drawdown, daily loss limits and profit targets, and a journal is the only way to see whether your execution actually respects those rules over time. Dusk Analyst keeps every evaluation separate, with its own starting balance, daily loss limit and profit target visible per account. Because the EA and cBot are read-only, they sit outside the order-copying rules most firms enforce, and the journal never sees your broker password. The Free tier covers two accounts, enough to track a live challenge and a funded account side by side; Pro adds auto-sync, unlimited accounts, AI insights and reports.

Because the EA is read-only, it falls outside the order-copying rules most prop firms enforce: it records closed trades and places nothing. A small number of firms restrict any external software, so check your firm's policy if you are unsure. The vault works with every firm running MT4, MT5 or cTrader; we verified 356 brokers and prop firms against their own sites in 2026. The read-only design is deliberately conservative: the EA has no order functions at all, so there is nothing for a compliance check to flag. If your firm disallows external tools, CSV import and manual entry remain available as fallbacks.

Yes. Run your demo, live, and funded accounts side by side in the same vault, each with its own starting balance and per-account API key, so you can compare performance across evaluations without mixing numbers. Where the firm's platform is MT4, MT5 or cTrader, auto-sync works exactly like any other account: the same read-only EA or cBot pushes every closed trade. Prop firm names we track include FTMO, FundedNext, The5ers, Funding Pips, MyFundedFX, Smart Prop Trader and The Funded Trader, and daily loss caps, drawdown and profit targets stay visible per account. The journal never sees your broker password or login credentials; only your closed trades and the account nickname leave the terminal.

Yes. The free tier costs $0 forever and includes two accounts, manual trade entry and CSV import - enough to journal a live account properly, with win rate, expectancy, drawdown and equity curve all calculated for you. There is no credit card required to start. Pro ($25/month flat) adds unlimited accounts, MT4/MT5/cTrader auto-sync, AI insights on your trading (1,000 trade-analyses a month), monthly reports and full export, and has a free trial of up to 30 days (card required). The pricing is deliberately simple: one plan, one price, no per-feature upsells.

Yes. Dusk Analyst Pro has a free trial of up to 30 days: 30 days if you start it within an hour of signing up, 15 days within 24 hours. A card is required to start it, nothing is charged on the day it starts, and when the trial ends Pro is $25/month unless you cancel. We email you a reminder before the trial ends. You can cancel anytime from Billing in the app; cancelling during the trial ends it straight away, nothing is charged, and your account goes back to the Free plan with every trade kept. There is one trial per account. The trial includes everything in Pro: MT4, MT5 and cTrader auto-sync, monthly reports, unlimited account books, 1,000 AI credits a month for AI Insights and CSV export. Start it in the app at app.duskanalyst.com, where it is offered whenever you open a Pro feature such as Connectors, and from the plan card in the sidebar. The Free plan is separate: it needs no card and stays free forever.

Yes - CSV import is available on every plan, including free. If you've been tracking trades in a spreadsheet, broker export or another journal, export the CSV from wherever it lives and import it into Dusk Analyst; the journal matches it against your accounts and keeps your history continuous. Import is also the fallback for platforms that don't run MT4, MT5 or cTrader. For MT4/MT5/cTrader terminals, Pro auto-syncs going forward and the EA backfills any trades your terminal missed while it was off. Any platform that exports a CSV of your trade history works. Dusk Analyst recognises TradingView, Tradovate, cTrader, MT4 and MT5 exports on sight; for anything else you map your columns once and that parser is saved for next time. Comma, semicolon and tab files are all handled, day-first and month-first dates are detected from the file itself, and any row that cannot be read is listed for you rather than dropped quietly.

Pro includes 1,000 AI trade-analyses every month. One credit covers one trade, so asking a question about a 40-trade week costs 40 credits and you can keep asking. The allowance resets on the 1st of each month and the counter sits in the top bar of the app, so you always know where you stand. Narrowing a question to one account or a shorter date range makes the same allowance go much further. Free accounts get a small number of AI credits to try AI Insights, alongside the full journal, analytics and weekly reports, and Pro's free trial (up to 30 days) includes the full monthly allowance.
