How to download your tradebook from Groww
Groww files trade history under Reports or Statements in your profile. The report you want is the order or trade history, not the P&L summary.
Downloading it, step by step
- Open Groww and go to your Profile.
- Open Reports or Statements.
- Choose Order history or Trade history — whichever your version offers — rather than a P&L or capital gains report.
- Set the date range, ideally covering a few months.
- Download the CSV or Excel file.
If Groww offers both, prefer whichever contains executed trades with prices and timestamps. An order report that includes cancelled or rejected orders is still usable, but the executed rows are what carry the behaviour.
A tradebook is not a P&L statement
This is the single most common mistake, and it is worth getting right before you download anything. Brokers offer several reports that look similar:
| Report | What it contains | Useful for behaviour? |
|---|---|---|
| Tradebook | One row per executed trade, with the time, quantity, price and buy/sell side | Yes — this is the one you want |
| P&L / Tax P&L statement | One row per stock or contract, with averaged buy and sell prices | No — individual trades and their timing are gone |
| Holdings / positions | What you currently own | No — it is a snapshot, not a history |
| Ledger / funds statement | Money in and out of your account | No — no trade detail at all |
Behaviour lives in the timing and sequence of trades — how many minutes after a loss you re-entered, whether the next position was larger, how long you held losers versus winners. A P&L statement averages all of that away. If your download has one row per instrument rather than one row per trade, you have the wrong report.
What the file needs to contain
Whatever the column headings are called, the export needs these five things for the analysis to work:
- Instrument or symbol — which contract or stock
- Buy / sell side — sometimes a separate column, sometimes a signed quantity
- Quantity
- Price — the executed price, not the order price
- Date and time — the timestamp matters most; a date alone limits what can be measured
Column names differ wildly between brokers, which is why a good analyser maps columns by meaning rather than expecting one fixed format.
What to do with the file once you have it
A tradebook on its own is a spreadsheet of numbers. What makes it useful is reading the sequence: which trades followed a loss, which were larger than your own average, which days you traded far more than usual, and how long you held losers compared with winners.
Riskora's free Mirror does exactly that, and it does it inside your browser — the file is never uploaded to a server. You get a Discipline Score out of 100, the single pattern costing you the most, and the rupee figure attached to it.
Common questions
Where do I find my trade history in Groww?
Under your Profile, in the Reports or Statements section. Exact menu names vary a little between app versions.
Does Groww give a tradebook for F&O?
Yes, F&O trades appear in the order or trade history export alongside equity trades, depending on the report selected.
What if my Groww export has cancelled orders in it?
That is fine. Cancelled and rejected orders have no execution price and are ignored by analysis; only executed trades are used.
