Does Tradervue have a free plan?

Yes. Tradervue's help centre says the free plan allows up to 30 imported trades per calendar month, counted as grouped trades rather than executions (checked 15 Oct 2026). Journalit's free plan has unlimited trades and accounts, but it is manual entry; imports need Pro.

How much does Tradervue cost?

Based on Tradervue's pricing page checked 15 Oct 2026, Silver is $29.95/mo and Gold is $49.95/mo. No yearly plan is listed, so a year of Silver costs $359.40. Journalit Pro is $19/month, or $180/year (≈$15/month billed yearly).

Is Tradervue worth it?

Tradervue can be worth it if you work with mentors or students, since both paid plans include unlimited mentors and mentees, if you want to share trades with its community (both listed on its pricing page), or if you want a hosted journal you can open in any browser. Journalit is the better fit if you want your journal as files you own, offline use, prop-challenge tracking, and a lower yearly price for unlimited imports.

What is a free alternative to Tradervue?

Journalit has an ongoing free plan with unlimited manual trades and accounts, analytics, templates and review workflows. It does not include imports, which need Pro, so a trader who mainly wants a few imports a month for free may be better served by Tradervue’s free plan.

Can I move my Tradervue history to Journalit?

Yes. The cleanest route is to re-export your history from your broker and import it with a built-in adapter. Tradervue’s own trade CSV export is available on Silver and Gold, and can be imported into Journalit with manual or AI column mapping. Notes and images have no documented export, so copy the ones you want to keep.

Tradervue alternative that keeps your journal in files you own

Journalit keeps your journal as files on your computer, free to start. Tradervue is a hosted journal with a capped free plan, stronger for mentoring and sharing trades.
