App for tracking profit/loss

Hello big fellas, what apps are you using to track your option losses or winnings? I see a lot of posts with great ux and comments asking what they use but not a lot of answers. Also if it integrates with different platforms to get all the trades automatically. I use Ibkr.

Thank you!

Trading buddy i guess

Hi everyone! I recently found this subreddit and another similar one, and they've honestly been a great source of insight — lots of interesting stories and strategies.

I've recently started digging deeper into options. For a long time I assumed they were way too risky and better left alone, so I stuck to classic investing and the occasional small trade. But the more I read and researched, the more I realized options can actually be used with limited risk too — through bull call/put spreads if you don't own the underlying shares, or through LEAP calls/puts. I'm still new to this, and since I don't hold 100 shares of any single stock, I'm being extra careful not to end up naked on a position.

So far, so good. The thing is, I've always been someone who likes talking things through with others, but nobody around me has options as a topic of conversation. I spend time every day checking volatility, screening different stocks, and putting together contract ideas and trade plans — but what I'm really missing is someone to bounce these ideas off of.

So if you're part of any groups where people share their views on upcoming trades or market moves, or if you're just as "lonely" in this as I am, it'd be great to connect. A few more brains debating the pros and cons definitely beats going at it alone.
