1. Export
On the Executions tab, export the grid to CSV.
Import
NinjaTrader trading journal
A NinjaTrader trading journal in Tiedbook uses the NinjaTrader 8 Executions grid export. That file is supported. The Trade Performance export is Beta, because the columns are whichever ones you left visible.
Executions CSV is supported. Trade Performance is Beta. No auto-sync.
Export, then preview
2. Set the fee
A repeated execution ID is skipped as a duplicate.
3. Read the preview
If the Commission column is filled in, those figures are used. If it is empty, the account fee preset is applied.
4. Tie the session
If Trade Performance will not export the columns you need, show Instrument, prices, times, profit, and commission, then export. If the preview disagrees with the grid, send the file. Do not treat a Beta preview as finished.
Executions is the supported file
On the Executions tab, export the grid to CSV. That is the finished parser. A repeated execution id is not a second fill. If Commission is filled in, it wins. If it is empty, the preset on the account supplies the fee so the statement is not a surprise. Round trips are rebuilt from those fills. Net P&L is after that commission.
Trade Performance is Beta because the Trades tab exports the columns that were visible. If you need it, show Instrument, prices, times, profit, and commission, then export. If the preview disagrees with the grid, do not treat it as finished. A NinjaTrader add-on is on the roadmap and is not available. There is no NinjaTrader auto-sync.

A small executions example
Two filled MES executions, buy then sell, one contract, become one round trip. A third execution with the same id as the first is skipped. The preview should say so. If the commission cell was 0.60 a side, that figure is in the net. If the cell was blank, the preset is in the net instead. Tie the session afterward. NinjaTrader’s clock does not replace the 5:00 PM Chicago roll.
Prop accounts that run on NinjaTrader and can export the Executions grid use this path. Tradeify’s help center mentions a trailing max drawdown column inside NinjaTrader. That column is their dashboard. It is not a column this import has to read in order to journal the fill.
Questions
Why is NinjaTrader trade performance not importing?
The Trades tab exports the columns that were visible. The Executions export is the supported file. If the preview is empty, the header did not match and the file should be sent to support.
Is there a NinjaTrader auto-sync?
No. NinjaTrader is a CSV import. A NinjaTrader add-on is on the roadmap and is not available.
Which commission wins?
The one in the file, when the cell is filled. The preset applies only when the cell is empty.
Where are the click-by-click notes?
The NinjaTrader import doc. This page is the journal overview. The doc is the export path.
