AI trade analyzer

An AI trade analyzer that reads your own trades

The AI Coach reviews single trades against your plan, grades each week from A to F and sums up where your money comes from and where it leaks.

By Reid KashUpdated How we calculate

An AI trade analyzer looks at trades you have already taken and tells you what to change. In ExpectancyIQ that is the AI Coach. It works from the trades you import, so every sentence it writes rests on your own fills. Below is what it wrote for a demo account with 211 sample trades.

Can AI trade for me?

No, and it isn't meant to. This AI trade analyzer reviews your own closed trades; it does not place orders, send signals or tell you what to take next. What it does is read what you already did and show where the money was made and lost, so your next decision rests on your own record rather than on a prediction. Tools that promise to trade for you are a different product, and the risk disclosure applies to any trading you do.

AI Coach overview on a demo account: an AI summary citing a 1.45 profit factor with four actions, a Trade Score of 76 and this week's three focus points

What the AI trade analyzer found in a sample account

The summary opens with the headline: the account is profitable, with a 1.45 profit factor, and most of that comes from the New York morning session. Then it lists four actions, and each one carries a number you can check:

  • Trades taken without a written plan cost $109.02 each on average.
  • The 62 opening-range-breakout trades lost −$1,370.16 in total. Leaving that one setup out would have added the same amount back.
  • Trades tagged “Support/resistance” lose −$33.65 each on average, so the coach says to stop taking them as tagged.
  • Trend-continuation trades win 51.5% of the time, so that is where the coach says to put the size.

Out of dozens of numbers, the coach picks the three or four that move the most money and puts them in one place. The metrics it quotes are defined on the methodology page.

A weekly report card, graded A to F

When a week ends, the coach grades it on process and results together and checks the decisions you were given the week before against the new figures. In the demo account, Oct 12 – Oct 18 got a B: trades taken straight after a loss fell from 12 to 7, so that decision was marked done. Only 5 of 12 trades had a planned risk, so that one was not. Each new decision comes with a case for and a case against, built from the same figures, so you can judge it yourself. The week before, Oct 5 – Oct 11, got a C.

Weekly report cards on the demo account: Oct 12 – Oct 18 graded B, with last week's two decisions marked done and not done and two new decisions, each with a case for and against; Oct 5 – Oct 11 graded C below
AI Coach › Weekly reports: one grade, one headline and one to three decisions per week.

How the AI trading journal works: five levels

The coach answers a different question at each level, from one trade up to your whole history. Each card shows what the level gives you and how often.

  1. Trade

    “Did I follow my plan here?”

    A written review of the trade and one thing to do next time.

    10 a month

  2. Day

    “How did today go?”

    A three-line summary of your day, tilt and overtrading included.

    10 a month

  3. Week

    “Am I improving?”

    A report card graded A to F, with the decisions to make next week.

    Every week, automatic

  4. All-time

    “What are my strengths and leaks?”

    A summary of your patterns with two to four action items.

    From 50 trades, 5 refreshes a month

  5. Ask

    “Why did I lose last week?”

    A real conversation about your own figures, with follow-ups.

    10 questions a month

What the AI trade analyzer won't do

  • No signals or predictions. It never places trades, reads charts or calls the market.
  • No guessing. When something isn't logged, such as a planned risk, it says so and tells you what to record.
  • Nothing about other traders. Ask answers questions about your own trades only.

Who the AI trade analyzer is for, and who it isn't

It suits traders who already take trades and want to know which habits pay and which cost money: futures day traders, prop-firm challenge traders and anyone who logs a plan and wants it checked against the results. It works best once you have at least 50 trades and log a strategy and planned risk on each, because the coach can only judge what you record.

It is not for someone looking for entries, a bot to run an account, or a prediction of where a market goes next. It also won't help before you have a few weeks of trades: with fewer than 3 trades in a week there is no report card, because the figures are too noisy to grade.

Two kinds of AI trade analyzer

Search for an AI trade analyzer and you get two different products. One kind sits on a chart, reads indicators and suggests entries, stops and targets. The other reads the trades you have already closed and looks for habits that cost money. ExpectancyIQ is the second kind.

Try it on your own trades

  1. Create an account. No credit card, and the trial runs 14 days.
  2. Import a broker CSV. Tradovate, NinjaTrader, cTrader and Topstep files are detected automatically; any other broker works through the generic CSV options.
  3. Log a plan on your trades: strategy, planned risk and reward, and any mistakes. The coach can only judge what you recorded.
  4. Open a trade and click AI review this trade, or wait for the week to end for your first report card.

The trial includes 1 weekly report card and 3 trade reviews. Day summaries, the all-time summary and Ask are part of Pro. The coach is one part of the ExpectancyIQ trading journal; the numbers it reads are the same ones on your trading dashboard. If you'd rather start in a spreadsheet, the free trading journal template imports here later. This page is educational, not financial advice; see the risk disclosure.

AI trade analyzer questions

Can AI trade for me?

No. The AI Coach doesn't place trades, connect to your broker to execute or tell you what to take. It reviews trades you have already closed, grades your weeks and points out habits that cost money. Every decision to enter or exit stays with you.

Can an AI trade analyzer tell me what to trade next?

Not this one. The AI Coach looks back at trades you have already closed. It doesn't read charts, forecast prices or suggest entries, and if you ask it for a market call it says it can only answer questions about your own trades. Tools that promise signals are a different product, usually an indicator on a chart.

How many trades does the AI need?

A trade review works on any single trade. The weekly report card needs at least 3 trades in the week, and the all-time summary of your strengths and leaks writes itself once you reach 50 trades. Fewer trades than that and the figures are too noisy to say much.

What does Pro add, and how much does it cost?

Pro adds the AI Coach (trade reviews, day summaries, a weekly report card, a patterns summary and Ask), all 53 report charts including Forecast, every insight, automatic cTrader sync, up to 5 trading accounts and unlimited screenshots — billed annually at $132/year, or $99/year during a promotion. Whichever price you subscribe at is the price you keep for as long as your subscription stays active. Every feature side by side on the Pricing page.

Is my trade data private?

Yes — your trades, journal entries, and any screenshots you attach to a trade are stored privately and scoped to your account only.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — every new account gets 14 days free with no credit card. After that your account stays open read-only: you can still sign in and see your trades and stats, but importing, adding or editing needs a subscription. Nothing is deleted.
