The Drawbridge Finance Alternative Built for Traders Leaving the Spreadsheet

Drawbridge Finance sells Google Sheets for options traders, and every fill goes into them by hand. OptionsEdge reads the CSV your broker already gives you and groups the legs into the spread you traded.

Trade-off

The honest version

What Drawbridge Finance does well

  • Each sheet is a one-time purchase you keep, from $20.50 for the Options Journal to $72.50 for the full Record Keeper.

  • The Rolling Options Record Keeper tracks up to 24 adjustments per trade and sorts open positions by days to expiration.

  • It estimates a profit and loss chart at expiration and compares up to four options strategies side by side.

  • The Options Journal records share trades, dividends, and commission fees next to your options, all in one Google Sheet.

When Drawbridge Finance is the better choice

Keep the Drawbridge sheet if you paper trade, if your broker has no usable export, or if you would rather pay once and own the file. It works with whatever you type in. OptionsEdge builds positions only from broker CSV files, has no manual trade entry, and charges monthly for analytics.

Before you switch

  • Your sheet is a one-time purchase, so you can keep it running beside OptionsEdge for a month and compare the totals.

  • The Options Journal gives each leg its own row, so expect your win rate in OptionsEdge to differ from the sheet's.

  • Download your trade history as a CSV from your broker first. The thinkorswim export guide under Related reading below walks through it.

Why traders switch

What frustrates traders about Drawbridge Finance

Every fill is typed by hand into the white cells, so a busy month means a long data-entry session.

The Options Journal logs a credit spread that expires worthless as two rows and a 50% win rate.

The Record Keeper's current prices are updated by hand, so open positions are only as fresh as your last edit.

The Record Keeper's summary sheets hold up to 200 trades, which an active premium seller can outgrow.

What you get instead

How OptionsEdge thinks about options

Reads the CSV your broker already produces. Tested with thinkorswim and tastytrade, with experimental column mapping for other brokers.

Groups your fills into the strategy you placed, such as an iron condor, a vertical, or a strangle, and sends any grouping it cannot settle to a review queue.

Counts a spread as one trade, so a win or a loss is judged on the spread's net P&L.

When you link a roll to a new expiration with Link as roll, the campaign shows the combined P&L across every roll.

Position detail, corrections, and a basic CSV export of your positions are free. Dashboards and analytics are on the paid Core plan.
