LedgepodThe ledger for traders

Frequently asked

The questions that actually get asked.

Can it place a trade?

No. Building your ledger never places an order — not a permission it requests. It reads what your broker already has, matches the legs into round trips, and writes the statement. Your orders go from you to your broker, as they always did; the ledger only reads what came back.

Do my records get uploaded?

No. The ledger, the statements and the keys stay on your computer. If you turn on reporting, what leaves is money and health figures under a username you pick — never account numbers, names, passwords or file paths — and the app will show you the exact payload before it sends one.

What happens if you disappear?

Your ledger is a database on your disk and your statements are files in your Documents folder. Both outlive us. The app keeps working without a connection; only updates and reporting need one.

Which brokers work today?

Tell us your broker. We test the ledger against the broker's own records before we add it. Write to [email protected].

Do I need to trade a lot to find it useful?

No. A trade a week still has fees worth seeing and a statement worth keeping. A hundred a day is where the by-hour and by-ticker views start paying for themselves.

Two accounts at the same broker?

Supported, including two separate sign-ins with their own keys. You choose which accounts are linked; an unlinked one is left out of every calculation rather than hidden from a total.

What does it cost?

Nothing is being sold yet. It is in private testing, and pricing will be settled before it opens — plainly, and without a subscription that quietly renews.

Windows only?

Today, yes. The Android app is real. macOS is not promised.

What if I get a new computer?

Pack a passport: one passphrase-encrypted file with your ledger, statements and settings. Your broker keys deliberately do not travel — you redo the guided sign-in, which is a paste and a sign-in.

Is my data used to train anything, or sold?

No. It is not collected in the first place.

How do I know an update is really yours?

Every release carries a publisher signature that the app verifies on your machine before installing. One that fails is refused; one that fails to start rolls itself back.

Can I get in?

Write to [email protected] and say how you trade. It is a small group on purpose.
