Comparison
A journal you never have to write.
The problem with journalling is not that people do not know it works. It is that logging trades by hand is the first thing to go on a bad week — exactly the week the record matters most. Quanify's journal fills itself, because Quanify placed the order.
Recorded because it was routed
Every fill is captured as it happens and tagged by strategy, account and session automatically. There is no import step, no broker CSV to reconcile at the weekend, and no gap where you meant to write it up and did not.
The signal itself is logged too — what it said and what happened to it — so a trade you do not recognise has an explanation attached rather than a shrug.
The metrics, without the spreadsheet
Sharpe, Sortino, Calmar, win rate and drawdown are computed from that record, with a monthly P&L calendar you can open down to the day. Because the source is fills rather than typed entries, the numbers do not quietly drift from reality.

Track a strategy you have not funded
A paper recorder runs beside your live accounts, so a strategy can build a real, timestamped history before a single dollar is behind it. That is the honest way to decide whether something is worth funding, and it costs you nothing but time.
Portfolio Builder then models what a combination of strategies would have done together, sized at the contract counts you would actually run, including the combined drawdown.
Where a journal alone stops
Reviewing well only helps if the next execution is better, and that is usually where it breaks down. Quanify is also the thing placing the trades: automation for your own strategies, and a copier that mirrors one leader account across every account you own at whole-number multipliers.
So the loop closes. The same platform executes, records and measures, which means the record and the behaviour cannot disagree.
Common questions
Does the journal work if I trade manually?
Yes. Copy Trader is built for manual operators — you trade by hand on your leader account and everything is recorded and mirrored from there.
Can I import my existing trade history?
Quanify's record starts when Quanify starts routing. It is built from fills it placed, which is what makes it trustworthy, but it also means it does not backfill a history from before you connected.
Are the analytics included or an add-on?
Included on every plan. There is no separate tier for the journal, the analytics or the safety rails.
What metrics are withheld on thin data?
Ratios that need a meaningful sample are held back rather than shown from a handful of trades — a confident Sharpe computed off three weeks is worse than no Sharpe.
