# Import Trades — TopstepX

> Export your trade history from TopstepX and import it into TradeAlign.

## Step 1: Export trades from TopstepX

1. Log in to your **TopstepX** account
2. Navigate to your **Trade History** or **Reports** section
3. Select the date range for the trades you want to export
4. Click **Export** or **Download** and choose **CSV** format
5. Save the file to your computer

<Tip>
  Make sure you export the **complete trade history** for the period you want to analyze. Partial exports may result in missing data.
</Tip>

## Step 2: Open TradeAlign settings

1. Click the **Profile Icon** in the bottom-right corner
2. Select **Settings** → **Accounts**
3. Select the account you want to import trades into

If you haven't added an account yet, see [Add a Trading Account](/getting-started/add-trading-account) first.

## Step 3: Upload the CSV file

1. Click **CSV Import**
2. Select the **TopstepX** import option
3. Choose your exported CSV file
4. Confirm the upload

TradeAlign will automatically parse and structure the data based on TopstepX's export format.

## Step 4: Verify your trades

After import, navigate to the [Trades Page](/journal/trades-page) to confirm:

* All expected trades are present
* Entry/exit prices, times, and symbols are correct
* Position sizes and P\&L match your records
