ChartLog is a clean, chart-centric journal that stock and options day traders enjoy. FundedNotes is built first for futures and prop-firm accounts: drawdown distance on the trailing or EOD rule, daily loss room, per-account journaling, and a roll-up across all your funded accounts.
ChartLog offers a tidy, visual experience that equities and options day traders genuinely like. The emphasis on charts and clean trade review makes it easy to study setups where the price action and annotations are the main story.
FundedNotes leads with futures and prop-firm needs. Drawdown distance, daily loss room, net P&L, and consistency sit at the center of the dashboard because those are the metrics that decide whether a funded account survives the day.
CSV import is available immediately, and live read-only sync across Rithmic, Tradovate, NinjaTrader, DXtrade, and Match-Trader pulls your fills on demand when you click Sync & Read Trades, plus CSV import for any platform. FundedNotes only ever reads your fills to build the journal — it never places, changes, or cancels orders, and never moves money.
For chart-led equities and options journaling, ChartLog is a pleasant fit. For futures traders living inside prop-firm rules and juggling several funded accounts, FundedNotes is built to mirror that reality from the first import.

ChartLog shines for chart-driven stock and options review, where annotated price action is the heart of the workflow. FundedNotes is shaped around futures and funded accounts, so if your edge depends on staying inside prop-firm drawdown and daily loss limits, FundedNotes tracks exactly those guardrails.
Yes. FundedNotes calculates the distance to your drawdown threshold using whichever rule your firm applies — trailing peak-equity or end-of-day — so the figure lines up with what your evaluation portal shows rather than a generic estimate.
Use live read-only sync to pull your fills on demand if your account routes through Rithmic, Tradovate, NinjaTrader, DXtrade, or Match-Trader, or import a CSV from any platform. Connections are strictly read-only: no order placement, modification, or cancellation, and no fund movement.
It does. Every account keeps its own journal, P&L, and consistency picture, and FundedNotes combines them into one roll-up so you can monitor a whole stable of prop accounts without switching tools.
A Free tier is available alongside a Lifetime Elite plan. See the [pricing page](/pricing) for the up-to-date features and prices.
