Import Warrior Sim | RizeTrade Help

Import Warrior Sim trades by exporting a text file with six columns in a fixed order, then uploading it under Add Trades with Warrior Sim selected. Match Date Format and Time zone to the file so every fill lands on the right day and clock time.

For the general upload flow, see How to import your trades.

Export from Warrior Sim

Build the export in the simulator so the columns match what Rize Trade expects, then save a text file.

Open Position Manager or Trading Monitor in Warrior Sim.
Set the columns to this exact order only: Date, Time, Symbol, Shares, Price, Side.
For Price, use the execution price, not the order price. Order price will throw off fills and P&L.
Export the list to a text file (CSV or tab-delimited TXT both work).

Columns Rize Trade expects

Each trade needs six values in order: date, time, symbol, quantity, price, and side.

| Column | What it is | Accepted names | | --- | --- | --- | | Date | Trade date | Date, Trade Date, Transaction Date, Exec Date, or a combined Date/Time, DateTime or Exec Date/Time column | | Time | Execution time | Time, Exec Time, Fill Time, Order Time | | Symbol | Ticker or contract | Symbol, Sym, Ticker | | Shares | Fill quantity | Shares, Qty, Quantity, Size, Fill Qty, Filled Qty, Exec Qty | | Price | Execution price | Exe Price, Exec Price, Fill Price, Avg Price, Execution Price, or Price | | Side | Buy or sell | Side, B/S, Action, Buy/Sell |

Header names are matched in upper or lower case. If both an execution price column and a Price column are present, the execution price is used.

Example row:

01/15/2024,09:30:15,AAPL,100,175.50,B

Rows with zero shares or a zero price are skipped as cancelled or rejected orders.

Side values

Use any of these side labels. Rize Trade maps them to buy or sell. A row with any other side value is skipped.

Buy: B, BUY, BOT, BOUGHT, BC, BTC, BTO, COVER, BUY TO COVER, BUY TO OPEN, BUY TO CLOSE, LONG
Sell: S, T, SS, SX, SELL, SOLD, SLD, SHRT, SSHRT, SHORT, SLD SHRT, SOLD SHORT, SELL SHORT, SHORT SELL, SELL TO OPEN, SELL TO CLOSE, STO, STC

File layouts that work

Keep one layout for the whole file. These shapes all import cleanly when the fields above are present:

Comma-separated six fields: Date, Time, Symbol, Shares, Price, Side on each line (the standard Warrior Sim export).
Tab, comma or semicolon separated with headers: headers for date, time, symbol, quantity, price, and side using the names in the table above.
Headers without a Date column: time, symbol, side, price, and quantity only. When Date is missing, Rize Trade uses the Trade Date you pick on upload. If no trade date is picked, the import stops and asks you to pick one.
Packed multi-fill lines: lines with 12 or more fields in repeating six-field groups (date, time, symbol, shares, price, side).
DAS-style Event lines: if the file starts with Event, or Event plus a tab, Rize Trade reads it with DAS Trader handling instead of the standard Warrior Sim layout. These files have no dates, so pick the Trade Date on upload.

Upload in Rize Trade

Import the text file from Add Trades with Warrior Sim selected. For the general upload flow, see How to import your trades. Warrior Sim-specific settings:

Set broker to Warrior Sim. The upload step is labeled Import from Warrior Sim.
Set Date Format to match the dates in your file. Default is MM/DD/YY. Options: MM/DD/YY, DD/MM/YY, MM/DD/YYYY, DD/MM/YYYY.
Set Time zone to match the timestamps in the file. Required.
Trade Date is only needed for exports that have times but no dates.
Accepted types: TXT or CSV.

After upload, open Settings > Import History to confirm the run.

Tip: If a date in your file has a day above 12, Rize Trade works out day and month order from the file itself. If every day is 12 or under, it shows the first trade under each reading and asks you to choose. If dates look shifted after a successful import, match Date Format and Time zone to the file and re-upload. See Why are my entries and exits on the wrong dates?.

If the import is rejected

Fix the file or the import settings, then upload again. Warrior Sim-specific rejections are below. For generic errors (file too large, wrong file type, empty file, missing account or time zone), see Fix any import problem.

This doesn't look like a Warrior Sim export

Symptom: Message explains that Warrior Sim files should have 6 columns per trade: Date, Time, Symbol, Shares, Price, Side (for example 01/15/2024,09:30:15,AAPL,100,175.50,BOT). It may show how your file starts. It also asks you to pick a different broker if the file is not from Warrior Sim.

Cause: Column order, missing fields, or the wrong broker selected.

Fix: Reset columns to Date, Time, Symbol, Shares, Price, Side only, export again, select Warrior Sim on upload, and match Date Format to the file. If the file is from another platform, choose that broker instead.

Missing a Symbol, Side, Quantity or Price column

Symptom: The message says This Warrior Sim file is missing a Symbol, Side, Quantity or Price column and lists the columns it found.

Cause: The header row has no column Rize Trade recognizes for one of those fields.

Fix: Add the missing column in Warrior Sim, export again, and re-upload.

Times but no dates

Symptom: The message says This export has times but no dates. Pick the Trade Date above and upload again.

Cause: The file has times but no dates (including DAS-style Event files), and no Trade Date was picked.

Fix: Pick the Trade Date on the upload screen and upload again.

Dates but no trade times

Symptom: The message says the file has dates but no trade times, so the fills cannot be placed in order.

Cause: The header row has a date column but no time column.

Fix: Add the Time column in Warrior Sim, export the executions with their times, and re-upload.

Header row detected but no valid trades found

Symptom: Import reports Header row detected but no valid trades found in this Warrior Sim file.

Cause: Headers were recognized, but no row had a readable symbol, side, quantity, price, date and time.

Fix: Check the first data rows against the accepted names and side values above, correct or remove bad lines, then export again and upload.

Failed to parse Warrior Sim file

Symptom: Message starts with Failed to parse Warrior Sim file: followed by a short reason.

Cause: The file could not be read (for example a corrupted line).

Fix: Open the text file, check the first data rows against the six-column layout and accepted side values, correct or remove bad lines, then re-export or save and upload again.

If the file is over 50 MB, split the date range and upload smaller pieces. See "File too large": how to break up your import file. If status stays queued or shows failed in Import History, check Import queued or something went wrong.
