Tradervue review (2026): pricing, the free plan, and who it's for

Tradervue is one of the oldest trading journals around, and it's still one of the most solid. It's also the one I most often see traders outgrow on the free plan within a couple of weeks. Here's what it costs, what you get, and who it suits.

The short version

Tradervue is a good, reliable journal for traders who want solid reports and a mentor looking over their trades, and the free plan is enough if you take a few trades a week. If you day trade, you'll hit the free plan's limit fast and pay $29.95 a month for Silver. If what you need is to stop breaking your rules rather than more reports, Actal grades every trade on your plan and is free while in beta. I built it, so weigh that.

Tradervue is a good fit if
  • You swing trade and take a handful of trades a week
  • You want a mentor to see your trades
  • You want broker sync and solid, proven reports
Look at Actal instead if
  • You day trade and would hit the free plan's limit
  • You want every trade graded on whether you followed your rules
  • You want each mistake priced in dollars and one thing to fix a week
  • You trade futures evals or forex on MetaTrader

Tradervue pricing

PlanPriceWhat you get
Free$0Limited trade imports each month; Tradervue's help pages say 30 trades a month
Silver$29.95 a monthUnlimited imports and accounts, broker sync, advanced reporting, mentoring
Gold$49.95 a monthEverything in Silver plus exit analysis, max potential P&L, commissions and fees and liquidity reports, 5 GB of images instead of 1 GB

From Tradervue's pricing page in September 2026. Silver and Gold come with a trial, and you can drop to the free plan instead.

What the free plan really gives you

Tradervue's help pages put the free plan at 30 trades a month. That's about a week and a half for someone who takes three trades a day. For a swing trader it's plenty. For a day trader it's a trial with a limit instead of a clock.

What Tradervue does well

  • Reliable imports and broker sync, from a company that's been doing this a long time.
  • Unlimited imports and accounts on both paid plans, not capped by tier.
  • Mentoring on the paid plans, so a coach can see your trades.
  • Gold's exit analysis and max potential P&L show what you left on the table.

Where it falls short

  • It looks and feels older than the newer journals.
  • Like most journals, it reports what happened. It won't grade whether you followed your plan or tell you which mistake to fix this week.
  • The free plan runs out quickly for anyone who day trades.
