Bneu Trade Journal automates MT5 trade logging for clear performance insights

This Bneu Trade Journal review for 2026 focuses on performance data capture and practical analysis rather than automated trading decisions. The free Bneu Trade Journal provides a pragmatic solution: it runs natively as an MQL5 utility on MT5, monitors account history in real time, and retains the latest 100 executed trades to compute summary statistics. What makes Bneu Trade Journal unique is its single-purpose design — it is a lightweight logger that emphasizes transparency: trade ticket, symbol, size, entry and exit, profit, and timestamp. There is no trade execution logic, no predictive modeling, and no external cloud dependency. The algorithmic behavior is deterministic and straightforward; it parses terminal history, updates an internal rolling buffer up to 100 trades, and recalculates metrics each tick or on command. It handles all instrument types supported by MT5, but performs best on liquid instruments where fills and spreads are stable. Risk management is left to the trader; Bneu Trade Journal surfaces realized drawdown, max consecutive losses, and average trade to inform stop loss and sizing adjustments. Expected performance characteristics are informational: improved decision speed, clearer post-trade review, and faster identification of systematic leaks in strategy. For traders who require deeper analytics, the CSV export enables more advanced metrics and longer sample analysis outside the platform.
