Import TradingView Trades to Vigil

TradingView supports broker-connected execution and paper trading from the chart. Vigil accepts exported TradingView trade history CSVs through the generic import layer and standardizes them for auditing.

Why Import Your TradingView Trades?

Importing your TradingView trade history into Vigil gives you access to AI-powered trade auditing that goes beyond basic journaling. Vigil analyzes your entries, exits, risk management, and behavioral patterns to surface the specific mistakes costing you money.

Unlike traditional journals that just store your trades, Vigil runs a structured audit against your trading data. It identifies rule violations, drawdown patterns, overtrading signals, and win-rate anomalies by session, instrument, and day of week. Every import is parsed entirely in your browser -- your trade data never leaves your device.

Whether you are running a prop firm evaluation or trading a personal account through TradingView, importing your execution history lets Vigil audit your real performance instead of relying on manual entry.

Who this import guide is for

Best for traders exporting directly from TradingView and wanting to audit broker or platform history without manual trade entry.

What to verify after import

Broker exports can be messy around partial fills, commissions, duplicate headers, or signed quantities. The guide reduces that friction, but you still need to verify the parsed trades before saving.
