How much room do you have left?

Pick your firm, type where the account stands, and see how close you are to the trailing drawdown and the daily loss limit — the two rules that end accounts.

The Maximum Loss Limit trails your highest end-of-day balance and locks at the starting balance. TopstepX accounts have had no daily loss limit since August 2024; on the legacy platforms (NinjaTrader, Tradovate, Quantower) a $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,000 daily limit still applies — type it in if yours does. These are starting points — verify them with your firm.

FundedNotes watches these numbers for you all day, on every account.

Built around Topstep’s rule set

Topstep evaluates traders on more than P&L — daily loss limits, trailing drawdown, and the consistency rule all matter. FundedNotes’s dashboard makes those numbers visible so you’re not surprised on payout day.

CSV import gets you up and running fast

Export your Topstep trade history as CSV from the firm portal, drop it into FundedNotes, and the journal, calendar, and analytics light up across your Combine and Funded history.

Side-by-side with Tradovate prop firms

If you run Topstep alongside Apex, Tradeify, or MFFU, all of them sit in the same FundedNotes dashboard. One review workflow, one journal, one place to look.

Designed for repeated review

FundedNotes is meant to be opened after every session. Calendar P&L, journal notes, mistake patterns, and consistency tracking are right there — no spreadsheet rebuilding, no screenshot scrolling.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get Topstep trades into FundedNotes?

Topstep uses TSTrader rather than Tradovate. Import your Topstep trade history via the manual CSV import — Topstep’s portal exports a CSV that FundedNotes ingests fully. (Live read-only sync is available for Tradovate- and Rithmic-routed firms like Apex / Tradeify / MFFU; for Topstep, CSV import is the way to bring history in.)

Does FundedNotes help with Topstep’s consistency rule?

Yes. The dashboard tracks daily P&L distribution so you can see whether any single day is approaching the consistency-rule threshold for your account size before it becomes a problem.

Will FundedNotes show my trailing drawdown distance?

Yes — for any account where the trade history is imported, FundedNotes can compute the live trailing floor from your peak equity and the trailing spread for your account size, mirroring Topstep’s evaluation rule.

Can I journal Topstep trades alongside other prop firm trades?

Yes. Topstep CSV imports live in the same journal as your imported Apex / Tradeify / MFFU accounts, so you can review your full prop-trading portfolio in one place.

Does FundedNotes work for the $50K, $100K, and $150K Combine sizes?

Yes — the dashboard adapts to whatever account size and trailing spread your Combine carries. Performance metrics and risk distances scale automatically per account.
