Kalshi Trading Journal Template: Track Every Prediction Market Trade
Stop guessing. Start tracking. A Notion trading journal built specifically for Kalshi and Polymarket traders — trade log, P&L dashboard, strategy tracker, and weekly reviews. Duplicate in one click.
The Problem
Most prediction market traders lose money and have no idea why. They track trades in spreadsheets designed for stocks. They forget to log resolutions. After 50 trades, they cannot tell you which strategy actually makes money.
Without a proper trading journal, every loss is a mystery and every win is luck.
The Solution
This Notion template gives you the same journaling framework professional quant traders use — adapted for prediction markets. Log every trade in under 30 seconds. See your edge accuracy in real time. Review your week in 5 minutes every Sunday.
In one month, you will know exactly which strategies work — and which ones are costing you money.
What's Inside the Template
📊 Trade Log Database
13 properties: Date, Platform (Kalshi/Polymarket), Ticker, Side (YES/NO), Entry Price, Exit Price, Contracts, P&L, Edge Estimate, Strategy Tag, Status, Resolution Notes. Filter and sort by any combination.
📈 P&L Dashboard
Win rate by platform. Cumulative P&L over time. Strategy performance breakdown. Edge accuracy — how often your probability estimate beat the market. All calculated automatically as you log trades.
🏷️ Strategy Tracker
Tag every trade by strategy: Weather Model, Economic Nowcast, Arbitrage, News Sentiment, Technical, Manual Read. See which approach generates your best risk-adjusted returns.
📅 Weekly Review Template
Pre-built review page: best trade, worst trade, key lessons, strategy adjustments for next week. Duplicate it every Sunday. In 5 minutes, you will know exactly what to change.
🎯 Goal Tracker
Monthly P&L targets. Max drawdown limits. Position sizing rules. Keeps you accountable. If you hit your loss limit, the tracker tells you to stop and review — before you blow your bankroll.
📝 Example Data Pre-Loaded
Three realistic example trades (BTC, Fed rates, NYC weather) with strategy tags and resolution notes. See how a properly logged journal looks — then replace with your own trades.
"The single biggest difference between profitable prediction market traders and everyone else? Profitable traders keep a journal. They know their edge. Everyone else is gambling and calling it analysis."
