The short version
- FX Journal Pro is not a trading platform and not financial advice. No signals, no recommendations, no promise of profit.
- ANNMAR LIMITED is not a financial institution, broker, investment firm or adviser and is not authorised by the FCA.
- We only use read-only (investor) access. We cannot open, close or modify trades and cannot move money.
- Data is encrypted in transit and at rest and deleted when you remove it. No system is completely secure; by connecting an account you accept the residual risks below.
1. Who we are
FX Journal Pro (“the app”, on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac and the web) is an original product designed, developed and operated by ANNMAR LIMITED, trading as AnnMar Studio, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (company no. 16014219, info@annmarlimited.co.uk). The name, design, source code, servers, market-data feed and related domains are our own work and property, or licensed to us.
2. Not financial advice, no signals, no regulated services
- ANNMAR LIMITED is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority or any other financial regulator and does not carry on any regulated activity.
- We do not provide investment advice, personal recommendations, trading signals, copy trading, account or portfolio management, brokerage, custody or any other financial service.
- Everything the app shows — statistics, charts, AI-written trade reviews, morning briefings, key levels, scores and grades — is general information for record-keeping and educational purposes. It describes the past or summarises public market information and is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold anything.
- Any decision to trade is yours alone. If you need advice, speak to an independent, appropriately authorised financial adviser.
3. Trading risk warning
Trading foreign exchange, CFDs, indices, metals, commodities, cryptocurrencies and other leveraged products carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for everyone. Leverage can work against you as well as for you, and you can lose more than your initial deposit. Past performance, including results shown in your journal or on share cards, is not a reliable indicator of future results. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.
4. What the app does with your trading account
4.1 Read-only access only
- MetaTrader 5: account number, server and investor password. Investor access can view history and balances but cannot place, modify or close orders or move funds. Never enter your master (trading) password.
- MetaTrader 4 (iPhone app): account number, server and investor password, processed through our connectivity provider (see the Privacy policy).
- TradeLocker: e-mail, password and server, stored encrypted only on your phone and used solely to request your history. The app never sends an order instruction.
The app contains no function to open, close or modify trades, change account settings or deposit, withdraw or transfer money, and we will never ask you to do so.
4.2 What we download
Only historical and account information: positions (symbol, direction, volume, prices, times, profit or loss, commission, swap), balance, equity, currency and balance operations such as deposits, withdrawals, bonuses and transfers. We do not access identity documents, payment cards or bank details.
4.3 Encryption and storage
- Every connection between the apps, our servers, your broker and our providers uses HTTPS/TLS.
- MT5 investor passwords are stored encrypted on our own sync server so the journal can be updated each night. They are never shown in the app, never shared and never sold.
- If you sign in, your journal is stored in your FX Journal account on our servers (encrypted at rest) so it appears on all your devices. If you do not sign in, it stays on your phone.
- Access to our servers is restricted, protected by secret keys and limited to what is needed to run the service.
4.4 Nothing is kept for ever
- Broker credentials and downloaded history are kept only while the broker account is connected; removing it deletes them from our sync server.
- Deleting your FX Journal account deletes everything in it (see Delete account).
- Market data and AI requests are processed to produce the result you asked for; market data may be cached briefly.
4.5 MT5 Bridge EA and Magic Keys
The free FXJournalPro Bridge EA for MetaTrader 5 desktop sends only closed trades, balance operations and balance to your journal, linked to your personal code. It never sends passwords and never trades. Magic Keys — an on-screen panel and optional keypad that will place orders on your own terminal only when you press a key — is in development. When it launches, you will be solely responsible for every order it places; test it on a demo account first.
5. Security risk assessment
We have assessed the main risks of connecting a trading account and the measures we take, so you can make an informed decision.
| Risk | Possible impact | Our measures | Residual risk |
|---|---|---|---|
| Someone uses our service to trade on your account | Unwanted trades or losses | Only investor (read-only) access is accepted for MetaTrader; the app has no order functionality. | Very low, provided you never enter your master password |
| Interception of data in transit | Exposure of login details or history | HTTPS/TLS on every connection; strict security headers on our websites. | Low |
| Unauthorised access to our servers | Exposure of investor passwords, journal and history | Encryption at rest, hashed session tokens, secret keys, restricted access, rate limits, minimal data, deletion on request. | Low, but cannot be fully excluded |
| Someone signs in to your FX Journal account | They can read your journal | Sign-in only through Apple, Google or a one-time e-mail code; codes expire after 10 minutes; repeated wrong codes are blocked. | Low if your Apple, Google or e-mail account is protected |
| Incident at a third-party provider (broker, MetaQuotes, TradeLocker, cloud host, connectivity or AI provider) | Interruption or exposure of data that provider holds | Reputable providers, data minimisation, contractual safeguards where available. | Outside our direct control |
| Lost or stolen phone or computer | Someone views your journal | Device encryption; optional Face ID or fingerprint lock; sign out of the web app on shared computers. | Low if your device has a passcode |
| Incorrect, delayed or incomplete data | Wrong statistics or balances | Every balance shows when it was last updated; you can refresh or re-import. | Possible; always check against your broker |
| Relying on AI reviews or briefings to trade | Trading losses | Clear labels that content is AI-generated, not advice or signals; reviews only look back. | Your responsibility |
What you can do: use only your investor password, keep your devices locked, protect the account you sign in with, change your investor password in MetaTrader if you suspect misuse (this immediately invalidates the stored one) and remove broker accounts you no longer want synced.
6. Limitation of liability
