How To Export Trade History on TastyTrade

If you’re trading on Tastytrade and need to keep track of your activity, exporting your trade history is a must. This article will guide you through the process of downloading your trading data step by step.

1. Navigate to History Tab

You’ll first need to navigate to the history tab. This is where you’ll see everything from executed trades to open and closed positions, and even cash transactions. You’ll find some of the following:

  • Trades: A list of all executed trades within the selected time frame.
  • Orders: Details of placed orders, including those that are filled, canceled, or still open.
  • Account Transactions: Information about deposits, withdrawals, and other financial transactions.
  • Balances: Current account balances and positions.

2. Edit Time Frame

Now that you’re on the History tab, you’ll want to make sure you’re looking at the right time frame for the data you need. Here’s how to do that:

  1. Find the Time Frame Selector: Look near the top of the History tab, and you’ll see an option to select a time frame. This lets you filter what you’re looking at by date.
  2. Pick a Predefined Time Frame: If you’re looking for something quick, you can choose from options like “Today,” “This Week,” “This Month,” or “Year-to-Date.”
  3. Set a Custom Date Range: If those options don’t quite fit, just click on the custom date range option, and you can pick the exact start and end dates you want.
  4. Account Filter: Also, double check the account filter to ensure you have the right account selected.

3. Export to CSV File

After you’ve set the time frame, you’ll next look for the csv button in the upper right hand corner to export the file. Once you hit save, Tastytrade will generate a CSV file that includes all the trade data from the period you selected. This file will have columns for everything: date, symbol, quantity, price, order type—you name it.

Importing Your Trades into TraderLog

Now that you’ve got your trade history saved, let’s walk through how to import those trades into TraderLog. Don’t worry, the process is super simple and user-friendly.

Step 1: Clicking the ‘New Trade’ Button

After logging into TraderLog, the first thing you’ll want to do is click the ‘New Trade’ button. You’ll find it in the top right corner of your dashboard. This is the same button you’d use if you were manually entering trades.

Once you click ‘New Trade,’ a new window will pop up. Here, you have two options: you can either manually input trade details or import your file. For the latter, simply find the ‘Upload File’ button in the window—this is where you’ll upload your CSV or Excel file. Go ahead and click that to continue.

Step 2: Uploading Your Trade File

In the window that pops up, you’ll see an option labeled ‘Upload File’. This is where you’ll upload your CSV or Excel file that contains your trade history. Just click that button to move forward.

Next, you’ll be asked to select your broker from a dropdown list. TraderLog supports a bunch of brokers, so just make sure to pick the one that matches the statement you saved earlier.

If you’ve linked multiple trading accounts in TraderLog, you’ll also need to choose the correct account at this step. This ensures the trades are imported into the right account within the platform.

Step 3: Completing the Import

After you’ve selected your broker, chosen your account, and uploaded your trade file, you’re ready to finalize the process. Just hit the ‘Save & Submit’ button located in the bottom right corner of the window.

Keep in mind, the ‘Save & Submit’ button will only be clickable once all the necessary fields (broker, account, and file) are filled out. If anything is missing, the button will stay disabled—so double-check everything before hitting submit!
