TradeZella

- Gives great insights on the things to improve based on the data
- Super helpful, worth the money

Cons: - Not much I can think of as of now - very satisfied so far!

Overall: Overall, it's a great platform and my experience has been great so far. It has made my trading journey better!

Pros: - Super quick to get setup.
- Robust analytics that help uncover trading patterns.
- Backtesting is included for free in both plans.
- The discord community is super helpful.
- The academy is gold, so much value rammed into one product.

Cons: - You need to do the hard work to get the most value out of journaling but it is worth it.
- Not all brokers are supported with autosync but it’s pretty seamless to add trades once you get used to it if your broker is not supported.

Overall: TradeZella is exactly what I never knew I needed. It is hands down the best analytics and journal platform for traders and changed how I approached my trading entirely.

Pros: What I love most is the ease of importing trades. I trade through Interactive Brokers, and Tradezella pulls everything in with one click—including execution data and timestamps. I don’t waste time inputting trades manually anymore, which keeps me focused on analysis, not admin work.

The analytics dashboard is one of the most powerful I’ve seen. I can break down my performance by strategy, session, ticker, time of day, or even emotional state if I’ve tracked it. One insight that changed everything for me: I realized my win rate dropped dramatically in the last hour of the market. I would have never caught that without the time-based performance breakdown. That led me to tighten my trading window and significantly improve my monthly PnL.

The Playbook feature is another gem. I’ve started documenting my A+ setups with screenshots and detailed notes. Over time, this has helped me trade more selectively and avoid mediocre setups.

Cons: There’s little stuff like not being able to change the format of the time or like metrics being available in one page but not another— but nothing even close to enough to make me stop using it! Great tool!

Overall: I’ve been using Tradezella daily for over a year now, and I can confidently say it’s transformed the way I approach my trading. Before Tradezella, I was cobbling together a system using Notion, Excel, and screenshots saved in random folders. Reviewing trades was tedious, and identifying patterns in my performance felt like detective work. With Tradezella, everything is centralized, automated, and visualized in a way that makes self-improvement feel structured and achievable.

What really stands out is the company’s commitment to traders. The product is clearly built for traders. There are consistent updates, the support team is fast and friendly, and they actively listen to user feedback—something you rarely see with trading tools.

If you’re a beginner trying to build good habits or an experienced trader looking to fine-tune your edge, Tradezella is hands-down the best tool out there.

Pros: TradeZella is by far the best trading journal, I wish I got it earlier. It has massively improved my trading.

Cons: No free trial. Wish there was a free trial for me to use so I wouldn't have waited.

Overall: Great! Overall great experience, best UI. A lot of features and very simple and easy to use product.

Pros: TradeZella has been a game changer for me. I used to struggle with tracking trades and understanding my mistakes. Now I get clear data, spot patterns faster, and actually improve week to week. It’s an excellent tool that’s made me more disciplined and confident in my trading. Highly recommend it.

Cons: There’s honestly nothing I didn’t like.

Overall: My overall experience with TradeZella has been excellent. It’s not just a journal, it’s a full performance system. It helped me spot bad habits, refine my edge, and stay accountable. The layout is clean, the features are powerful, and it actually makes journaling enjoyable. Easily the best tool I’ve used.

Pros: It’s made journaling so much easier, plus the auto-sync saves me a ton of time.

Cons: No cons. Everything has been working great for me.

Overall: I’ve been using TradeZella for a few months now, and honestly, it’s made a huge difference in how I trade. I have my broker synced, so I don’t have to import anything manually; my trades are added automatically, which makes journaling super easy.

Their backtesting is really solid and keeps getting better. They’re always adding new features and improvements, which shows they actually listen to their customers.
What I really like is that I no longer need five different tools. Journaling, analytics, replay, and backtesting are all in one place.

If you’re trying to get better and take trading seriously this is it.

Pros: N/A.

Cons: Be careful with your billing information, I recently canceled my subscription and they continued to charge me the monthly subscription fee. I contacted them to stop the payments and they told me it was an error and the payments would stop. However, on the following month I was charged again.

Overall: It's really unfortunate that I had to cancel my card for a replacement so they could no longer continue to charge me again. Afterwards, I signed up for Tradervue Online Journaling instead and never looked back.
