Month In Review Page
A monthly trading journal usually means either a spreadsheet tab per month or a wall of numbers pasted into a notes app. This script generates one HTML file per month instead: trade count, win rate, net P/L, profit factor, average win/loss, largest win/loss and expectancy laid out as headline stat cards, with an inline SVG sparkline of the month's running equity underneath, all in a single file with no external assets, so it opens in any browser and can be archived or emailed as-is. The sparkline is built the same way as StandaloneHtmlChart.mq4 elsewhere in this catalogue - a raw SVG polyline with plain numeric coordinates, so there is no text to escape between the MQL4 string literals and the embedded markup. That approach is reimplemented locally in this file rather than shared, since each CodeBase submission must stand alone. Notes and limitations Only market orders (OP_BUY/OP_SELL) that closed within the chosen month (by close time, in the terminal's local/server time) are included - no allowance is made for a trade that opened in one month and closed in the next being split across two pages. The equity sparkline plots the running sum of this month's included trades' P/L only, starting from zero at the first trade of the month - it is a within-month shape, not the account's actual balance curve, and does not account for deposits/withdrawals or trades excluded by the filters. If no closed trades match the chosen month and filters, the script alerts and writes no file, rather than producing an empty or misleading page.
