Why does my import fail?


Most import failures happen due to changed export format, missing columns, or custom-edited files.


Can I import only a date range?


Yes. Export the date range you want from your broker and import that file into TradesViz.


What should I send support?


Share your broker name, export steps, and one sample file, then email everything to support@tradesviz.com so support can debug or add broker coverage quickly.
