Investment journal app for long-term stock investors
Your broker records what you bought. Giroku records the reason, support, risks, and review plan behind each position.
Who this is for
- Long-term stock investors who want reasoning attached to each holding.
- People who save research in notes, bookmarks, spreadsheets, and memory.
- Investors who review positions after earnings, price moves, and changes in their view.
What you track
- The original reason the stock belonged on your watchlist or portfolio.
- Saved sources, research notes, screenshots, and support tied to the ticker.
- Review notes that state what changed and what action you considered.
- Decisions and trades with the reasoning that made them make sense at the time.
Example workflow
Start with one ticker
Write the reason you care, the source that convinced you, and what would change your mind.
Attach support
Save sources and notes beside the reason instead of scattering them across tools.
Review what changed
Return after earnings, news, valuation changes, or a scheduled review.
What makes an investment journal different
Most search results for investment journal app mix long-term investing, trading journals, portfolio trackers, and generic note apps. Giroku is built for the long-term investor who needs the reason trail, not another execution dashboard.
Reason before result
Record what you believed before price movement and headlines make the outcome feel obvious.
Ticker-level memory
Keep Research notes, Saved sources, Decisions, trades, Review notes, and targets to review attached to the ticker they explain.
Review loop
Use the journal to return after earnings, valuation changes, or new information and compare facts against the original case.
How Giroku helps
- Organizes investment memory by ticker instead of by disconnected files.
- Keeps review notes close to the reason they are testing.
- Stays separate from brokers and order execution, so the record is about reasoning.
Common questions
Is Giroku an investment journal app or a trading journal?
Giroku is an investment journal app for long-term stock research. It can record trades, but its main job is preserving the reason, support, decisions, and later reviews behind a position.
Do I need to connect a broker to use Giroku?
No. Giroku is private by default and does not require broker sync or order execution. You can start with a ticker, a reason, and a review note.
What should I write first?
Start with why the stock matters, the source or evidence that supports the reason, what would change your mind, and when you should review it again.
