OK,
here is the new version of the importer.
Fixed issue:
minutes in trade are now calculated correctly
Now featuring new embedded version of the journal. Thanks @vvhg . It is MUCH faster and also a bit smaller. Also the headers are now displayed properly.
Just one problem... the dashboard does not recalculate. Am I missing something?

Sorry, I meant the Overview tab.
Somehow the current balance stays the same after import (used to recalculate after defining the starting balance) and the equity curve stays the same...
Same for some other fields... I'll do some more tests...

Exactly, the best would be to make it user selectable to write or skip it. As you pointed out, for strategies it makes sense to write it.
But for discretionary trading it would be better to skip it, so while trading you indert method, grades, comment and thoughts and after trading hours you just import all the numbers....

i agree with ability to omit method and wether we followed the rules or not..

M6E should be 12,500 point value, $1.25 a tick.
