What happens after import?
How to download your Upstox Trade Report.
Sign in to the Upstox web dashboard
Open the Upstox web dashboard and sign in to the account whose trading history you want to journal.
Open the Trade report
From the dashboard, open Trade to access the historical trade report and export controls.
Select the export period
Choose the required date range and segment, then click Get report to load the executions you want to import.
Download CSV or XLSX
After the report loads, click Download and choose CSV or XLSX. Keep the original headers and column structure unchanged before uploading the file to QbarTrade.
Use the Trade Report. Sign in to the Upstox web dashboard, open Trade, choose the period and segment, click Get report and download CSV or XLSX.
Keep the file unchanged. Upload the exported Upstox file with its original headers and columns intact so QbarTrade can map the transaction rows accurately.
Upload and validate your Upstox trades.
Follow these 12 steps inside QbarTrade to transform your Upstox Trade Report into a clean, reviewable trade journal.
Open Trades
From the QbarTrade sidebar, open Trades.
Open the import menu
Use the three-dot menu beside the Add button and select Import trades.
Add the Upstox Trade Report file
Select Add file and upload the CSV or XLSX Trade Report downloaded from Upstox.
Assign the broker account
Select the Upstox broker account that produced the imported trades. This keeps broker-specific trades and analytics organised correctly.
Review the imported rows
QbarTrade displays the mapped trades before final import. Review the instrument, side, quantity, segment, entry, exit, duration, stop-loss, P&L and strategy fields.
Resolve validation warnings
Rows may be marked valid, invalid, needs broker or needs instrument. Correct the missing information or remove rows that do not represent actual trade executions.
Remove unwanted rows
Select invalid or irrelevant rows and use the delete action to exclude them from the final import. Examples include disclaimer text interpreted as a row, empty lines, summary rows, unmapped instruments, or non-trade information.
Merge related executions
Select related trades and use Merge when multiple executions belong to one completed trading idea or round-trip. A merged round-trip can preserve the individual entry, scale-up, scale-down and exit legs while showing the combined position as one reviewable trade.
Edit trade details
Use the edit action to correct the instrument or add broker account, strategy, notes, stop-loss price and charges or taxes.
Save the changes
Save the edited row after confirming the corrected trade information.
Confirm the import
When the valid rows are ready, select Confirm & Import to add them to the QbarTrade trading journal.
View all imported trades
Return to the Trades page and use the All filter to review imported open and closed trades.
Turn execution rows into reviewable trades.
Validate trade rows
Review which rows contain usable execution data and identify rows that require broker or instrument information.
Connect executions into round-trips
Combine related entries, additions, reductions and exits so a complete position can be reviewed as one trading outcome.
Preserve individual trade legs
The complete round-trip can retain its underlying fills, helping you understand how the position was built and closed.
Add strategy context
Assign a strategy so later analysis can compare outcomes across your repeated trading setups.
Add risk and cost details
Add stop-loss and charges or taxes where required so the journal reflects more than gross price movement.
Analyse performance
Evaluate key journal metrics including Net P&L, Win rate, Profit factor, Expectancy per trade, Average R multiple, Maximum drawdown, Equity curve, Daily net P&L, Average win, Average loss, Win and loss streaks, Performance by weekday, and Top traded symbols.
One trading idea can contain several Upstox executions.
Scaling into a stock, adding quantity at a second price, partially exiting and closing the remaining position can create several execution rows in the Trade Report. Reviewing each row separately can hide the outcome of the complete decision. QbarTrade lets related executions be combined into one round-trip while preserving the underlying legs for audit and review.
Round-Trip Example
Common Upstox Trade Report import issues.
The broker is not assigned
Select your Upstox broker account before confirming the import. This ensures the imported executions are connected to the correct account.
An instrument is not linked
Search for and select the correct equity, futures, options, currency or commodity instrument. Unlinked instruments may have limited chart or analytics functionality.
The wrong Upstox report was uploaded
Use the historical Trade Report downloaded from the Upstox web dashboard. A P&L statement, holdings export, positions file or contract note may not contain the execution-level columns expected by the importer.
Some historical trades are missing
Check the date range selected in the Upstox Trade Report. Download separate export files when your trading activity spans multiple periods or segments.
The report contains summary lines
QbarTrade flags non-trade lines during the validation step. Exclude summary or total lines before confirming the final import.
The P&L does not match
Check whether you are comparing the same date range, open or closed trades, gross or net P&L, missing brokerage or taxes, incorrect entry or exit mapping, or unmerged execution legs.
Scale-in trades appear separately
Select only the executions that belong to the same completed position and use Merge to create one round-trip.
A row has the wrong strategy
Open the row editor and assign the strategy that accurately represents the original trading setup.

Upstox Trade Import FAQ
Which Upstox file should I import into QbarTrade?+
Use the Trade Report available under Trade in the Upstox web dashboard. Download the report as a CSV or XLSX file so QbarTrade can read the structured execution rows.
How do I download the Upstox Trade Report?+
Sign in to the Upstox web dashboard, open Trade, select the date range and segment, click Get report and choose Download to save CSV or XLSX.
Can I import older Upstox trades?+
Yes. Select the relevant date range in Upstox Trade Report. If your history spans multiple periods, download separate files and import them into QbarTrade sequentially.
Can I import Upstox equity, F&O and commodity trades?+
This workflow is intended for supported equity, futures, options, currency and commodity trade rows contained in the Upstox Trade Report. Review instrument and segment mapping before confirming the import.
Why are some Upstox rows marked invalid?+
A row may be missing an instrument, contain non-trade summary text, have incomplete execution data or require broker assignment. Review the warning and correct the row or remove it if it is not an actual trade.
Can I merge multiple Upstox executions?+
Yes. When several executions belong to the same completed trading idea, select them and merge them into one round-trip while retaining the underlying execution legs.
Can I edit an Upstox trade before importing it?+
Yes. The review screen allows fields such as instrument, broker account, strategy, notes, stop-loss and charges or taxes to be reviewed or corrected before final import.
Why does my imported P&L differ from Upstox?+
Check whether you are comparing the same date range, open or closed trades, gross or net P&L, and whether charges, taxes and all execution legs are included correctly.
Does importing trades allow QbarTrade to place Upstox orders?+
No. Importing a Trade Report is strictly used for journaling and analysis. It does not give QbarTrade permission to place, modify or execute orders in your Upstox account.
Should I upload an Upstox contract note or Trade Report?+
Use the Trade Report for this import workflow. Contract notes are day-wise confirmations, while the Trade Report provides the multi-day structured history needed for journaling.
