⚠️ Educational content only. All figures in this post are hypothetical and exist to show the review method. The exact layout of Hyperliquid’s history tabs and CSV columns can change; check the current app before following the steps.
A trading journal records what you planned. Your Hyperliquid trade history records what actually happened: every fill, every fee, every funding payment, timestamped to the second. Most traders never look at it beyond the last few rows. That’s a shame, because it’s the most honest record of your trading you’ll ever have, and it doesn’t care how a trade felt.
This guide shows you how to export your history, clean it up in about ten minutes, and run seven “cuts” that expose the most common leaks. You don’t need any special software, just a spreadsheet. New to the platform? Start with The Ultimate Guide to Hyperliquid DEX.
Step 1: Export Your History
Hyperliquid keeps your fills, funding payments, and deposits and withdrawals in separate tabs, and each one can be exported as a CSV file. You want at least the first two.
1
Connect the wallet you trade with at app.hyperliquid.xyz and open the Portfolio page.
2
Trade History → Export as CSV. This gives you every fill with time, market, side, price, size, fee and realized P&L on closing fills.
3
Funding History → Export as CSV. Every hourly funding payment you paid or received, by market.
4
Export regularly. Some users report the download is capped at a fixed number of rows, so active traders should export monthly rather than once a year.
Timestamps are usually in UTC. Before you analyze by time of day, add a column that converts to your own time zone (subtract 5 hours for EST, 4 for EDT). Otherwise your “morning trades” will be someone else’s afternoon.
Step 2: Turn Fills Into Trades
The export is a list of fills, not trades. One trade might be five rows: two partial entries, a partial take-profit, and two closing fills. Before you can analyze anything, group fills into round-trip trades.
In a spreadsheet, add a Trade # column and give every fill from open to fully closed the same number. Then build a summary sheet with one row per trade: market, long or short, open time, close time, hold time, total fees, closed P&L, and funding for that market during the hold. If you also have the planned risk from your journal, add it and calculate each trade’s result in R.
💡 The Only Formula You Need
Net P&L = closed P&L − fees − funding paid + funding received. Many traders look only at closed P&L. On an active account, fees and funding can be the difference between a winning quarter and a losing one.
Step 3: Run the 7 Leak Cuts
Use a pivot table (Insert → Pivot table in Excel or Google Sheets) on your trade summary. For each cut, show the number of trades, win rate, total net P&L and average net P&L per trade. A leak is any slice that is consistently negative while the rest of your trading is positive.
Two numbers to check first
Your average loss vs your planned risk. If you plan to risk $100 a trade but your average loss is $160, stops are being moved, skipped or slipping. Revisit stop-loss placement. Your largest single loss. One outsized loss can erase weeks of disciplined trading. If it’s more than 3× your normal risk, find out exactly what happened on that trade before anything else.
Worked Example: A 3-Month Review (Hypothetical)
A trader exports three months of history. Closed P&L looks healthy at +$2,350. Then the full picture:
Fees and funding consumed about 63% of the trading profit. The cuts then point to three specific fixes:
5
Order type. At 78% taker the blended fee rate is about 0.0384%. Moving to 40% taker drops it to about 0.027%, which on the same volume would have cut fees from $1,180 to roughly $830, a saving of about $350. See Hyperliquid Fees Explained.
1
Market. BTC and ETH trades were solidly positive. Fourteen memecoin trades lost a combined $640 net. Rule for next quarter: majors only, or memecoins at half size with ATR-based stops.
6
After a loss. Nine trades opened within 30 minutes of a losing close: two winners, seven losers, net −$420. Rule: a 30-minute pause after any loss.
The fixes add up. Removing the memecoin and revenge losses and cutting fees would have turned +$860 into something closer to +$2,000 on the same quarter, with fewer trades. Some trades overlap between cuts, so don’t simply add every leak together, but the direction is clear. None of it required a new indicator.
Turn Leaks Into Rules
A review is only useful if it changes what you do next. For each leak, write one specific rule, and limit yourself to two or three new rules per review so you can actually follow them.

❌
Reviewing closed P&L only
Leaving out fees and funding flatters active and swing traders alike. Always work from net.
❌
Drawing conclusions from tiny slices
Four losing trades on a coin is noise. Act on slices with 15–20+ trades, and keep watching the smaller ones.
❌
Treating every fill as a trade
Partial fills inflate your trade count and wreck win-rate math. Group fills into round trips first.
❌
Fixing everything at once
Seven new rules get ignored. Two or three, followed for a full month, actually change results.

The Bottom Line
Your Hyperliquid trade history is a free, brutally honest audit of your trading. Export your fills and funding, group fills into trades, work from net P&L, and run the seven cuts: market, direction, time of day, hold time, order type, after-loss behavior and size. The leaks are almost always a few specific habits, not your whole strategy.
Turn each leak into one rule, follow two or three of them for a month, and export again. Pair the history with a trading journal and the free Pre-Trade Checklist, and you’ll know not just where the money went, but why.

The first time I exported my full trade history and added up the fees and funding, I didn’t like the number. My trades were working; my habits were eating the profit. Sorting by coin and by time of day showed me two leaks I’d never have spotted from memory. Now I export every month, and it’s the most useful hour I spend on my trading.
