trade-journal
This Claude Code skill analyzes trading behavior by parsing broker export files in formats from Tonghuashun, Eastmoney, Futu, or generic CSV layouts. It generates a trading profile covering metrics like win rate, holding periods, and profit distribution, plus identifies four behavioral biases (disposition effect, overtrading, momentum chasing, and anchoring) with severity ratings and supporting evidence. Use it when reviewing personal trading performance or diagnosing recurring decision-making patterns.

# Trade Journal Analysis
## Purpose
Users upload broker exports (交割单) and get an honest, data-grounded portrait
of their own trading. Two layers are live:
- **Profile** — holding days, frequency, win rate, PnL ratio, cumulative PnL,
max drawdown, top symbols, market/hourly distribution.
- **Behavior diagnostics** — 4 biases, each with severity (low/medium/high)
and numeric evidence: disposition effect, overtrading, chasing momentum,
anchoring.
Strategy extraction → backtest bridge lands in Phase 4c.
Supported formats (auto-detected):
- **同花顺** (Tonghuashun) — A-share CSV, typically GBK-encoded
- **东方财富** (Eastmoney) — A-share CSV, typically GBK-encoded
- **富途** (Futu) — HK/US CSV, UTF-8
- **Generic** — any CSV with columns like `datetime/symbol/side/qty/price`
## Usage
**Call the `analyze_trade_journal` tool directly. Never run Python from bash.**
```
analyze_trade_journal(file_path="uploads/xxx.csv")
analyze_trade_journal(file_path="uploads/xxx.csv", analysis_type="profile")
analyze_trade_journal(file_path="uploads/xxx.csv", filter_expr="2026-01 to 2026-03")
analyze_trade_journal(file_path="uploads/xxx.csv", filter_expr="symbol=600519.SH")
analyze_trade_journal(file_path="uploads/xxx.csv", filter_expr="market=china_a")
```
`analysis_type`:
- `full` (default) — profile + behavior (strategy still placeholder)
- `profile` — profile metrics only (fastest)
- `behavior` — 4 behavior diagnostics only
- `strategy` — Phase 4c placeholder
`filter_expr` (optional):
- Date range: `"YYYY-MM to YYYY-MM"` or `"YYYY-MM-DD to YYYY-MM-DD"`
- Symbol: `"symbol=600519.SH"` (exact match on qualified symbol)
- Market: `"market=china_a|us|hk|crypto"`
## Return shape (profile subset)
```json
{
"status": "ok",
"file": "xxx.csv",
"format_detected": "tonghuashun",
"total_records": 326,
"date_range": "2026-01-06 ~ 2026-03-28",
"symbols_count": 42,
"market": "china_a",
"profile": {
"total_trades": 326,
"total_roundtrips": 118,
"avg_holding_days": 3.2,
"trade_frequency_per_week": 4.1,
"win_rate": 0.48,
"profit_loss_ratio": 1.35,
"total_pnl": 18240.55,
"max_drawdown": -9820.10,
"top_symbols": [{"symbol": "600519.SH", "trades": 14, "total_amount": 1.02e6}, ...],
"market_distribution": {"china_a": 326},
"hourly_distribution": {9: 52, 10: 84, ...},
"roundtrips_sample": [{"symbol": "600519.SH", "buy_dt": "...", "sell_dt": "...", "pnl": 3400.1, "pnl_pct": 0.021, "hold_days": 2.5}, ...]
}
}
```
Note: PnL uses FIFO lot matching; unmatched open positions are excluded from
win rate / PnL ratio (only closed round-trips count).
## Presenting results to the user
Produce a **single markdown report** in the user's language. Lead with the
top-line numbers, then section-by-section. Keep it dense — this is retail
readers skimming on a phone.
### Report template
```
## 你的交易画像 — {date_range}
**总体**
- 交易笔数:{total_trades}(完整来回 {total_roundtrips} 次)
- 平均持仓:{avg_holding_days} 天
- 交易频率:{trade_frequency_per_week} 次/周
- 胜率:{win_rate:.0%}
- 盈亏比:{profit_loss_ratio}
- 累计盈亏:{total_pnl}
- 最大回撤:{max_drawdown}
**最常交易的标的**(前 5 名)
| 标的 | 笔数 | 成交额 |
|------|------|--------|
| ... | ... | ... |
**市场分布**
{market_distribution}
**交易时段**
{hourly_distribution — highlight peak hours}
**一句话观察**
(根据数据写 1-2 句:过度交易?只做窄范围标的?集中在某时段?)
```
Guidance:
- If `win_rate < 0.4` AND `profit_loss_ratio < 1.0` → explicit warning: losing
on both win rate and payoff. Ask whether they want behavior diagnostics
(Phase 4b) or a cooling-off reality check.
- If `avg_holding_days < 1` AND `trade_frequency_per_week > 15` → flag
intraday-heavy pattern, note that minute-level backtest would be better.
- If `symbols_count <= 3` → concentration risk; ask if they want a sector-
diversification check.
## Follow-up dialogue
After the initial report, users typically ask:
- **Time-slice**: "3 月份表现怎么样" → re-call with `filter_expr="2026-03-01 to 2026-03-31"`.
- **Symbol deep-dive**: "茅台这只赚了多少" → `filter_expr="symbol=600519.SH"`.
- **Market split**: "港股和美股分开看" → two calls, `market=hk` and `market=us`.
- **Hypothetical** ("如果我严格止损 -5%") → Phase 4b feature; for now tell the
user this is on the roadmap.
Do NOT re-upload — the file path is still valid for subsequent tool calls
in the same session.
## Error handling
- `File not found` / `Unsupported extension` — ask user to re-upload.
- `Unrecognized trade journal format` — share the detected columns back to
the user and ask them to rename the key columns to: `datetime, symbol,
side, quantity, price, amount, fee` (generic fallback).
- `No trade records parsed` — likely empty file or header-only; ask user to
confirm the export contains actual fills.
## Behavior diagnostics (shape)
Under `result["behavior"]`:
```json
{
"disposition_effect": {
"severity": "high",
"ratio_loss_to_win_hold": 1.69,
"avg_winner_hold_days": 7.4,
"avg_loser_hold_days": 12.5,
"evidence": "Losing roundtrips held 12.5d vs winning 7.4d (ratio 1.69). Classic disposition pattern."
},
"overtrading": {
"severity": "high",
"busy_day_avg_pnl": -2632,
"quiet_day_avg_pnl": 759,
"evidence": "On busy days (≥3 trades) avg PnL -2632; on quiet days (≤1) avg PnL +759. High activity hurts returns."
},
"chasing_momentum": {
"severity": "medium",
"chase_ratio": 0.5,
"buys_evaluated": 4,
"evidence": "2/4 buys (50%) came after a >3% price run-up in the same symbol. Some chasing tendency."
},
"anchoring": {
"severity": "high",
"anchored_symbol_ratio": 0.83,
"symbols_evaluated": 6,
"anchored_symbols": [...],
"evidence": "5/6 frequently-traded symbols stayed in a narrow price band (CV<5%). Strong anchoring."
}
}
```
### Detection logic (for user-facing explanation)
| Bias | Metric | Medium | High |
|------|--------|--------|------|
| **Disposition effect** | avg_loser_hold / avg_winner_hold | ≥ 1.2 | ≥ 1.5 |
| **Overtrading** | (quiet − busy) / \|quiet\| day-PnL gap | ≥ 0.3 | ≥ 1.0 |
