Tradervue is a journal many traders meet early, partly because it has a free plan. EdgeFlow is a paid journal built for one question: which of the conditions you trade on came with your winners?
Those are different starting points, so the right choice depends on where you are.
What does Tradervue do better?
A free plan. Tradervue's pricing page lists a free Basic plan for up to thirty trades a month, with basic journaling, basic reports and sharing. EdgeFlow has no free plan.
Broker sync. Tradervue lists 80+ trading platform integrations, and broker sync on its paid plans. EdgeFlow does not connect to brokers.
Trades on a chart. Tradervue draws your entries and exits on a TradingView chart, with charts made for you on several timeframes. In EdgeFlow you add your own screenshot to a trade.
Sharing and mentoring. Tradervue lets you share trades with its community and work with mentors or mentees.
Stocks and options. Tradervue's site names stocks, options, futures and forex. EdgeFlow is built for futures, forex and crypto.
Exit analysis. Tradervue's Gold plan adds trade exit analysis and a max potential profit and loss report.
If you trade stocks, want to start free, or work with a mentor, Tradervue is the natural pick.
What does EdgeFlow do differently?
Tradervue, like most journals, lets you tag trades and filter reports by tag. You see how trades with one tag did.
EdgeFlow starts from what you check before you get in. On every trade you tick those checks in four parts: the setup, the market around it, how you entered and how you managed the trade. Edge Builder then shows, for each check and each combination of checks, how many trades had it, how many won and the average result.
A short example. Say you trade breakouts. Overall they are flat. One at a time, your checks show nothing special. Together, breakouts in the morning session with the bigger chart trending might have done well, and the same breakouts against the trend gave it back. You only see that when combinations are counted, with the number of trades next to each.
Edge Discovery turns what held up into a written plan. You freeze it, and the trades after that are its test. When a group has too few trades, EdgeFlow marks it as too early to tell instead of calling it a pattern. What to track in a trading journal covers which checks are worth logging in the first place.
Who should pick Tradervue?
Pick Tradervue if you are new and want to journal without paying. Thirty trades a month is enough for many part-time traders.
Pick it if you want trades synced and drawn on charts with no typing.
Pick it if a mentor reviews your trades, or you trade stocks or options.
Who should pick EdgeFlow?
Pick EdgeFlow if you already log your trades and cannot say which conditions carry your results.
Pick it if you want your checks counted in combinations, with the number of trades behind every answer.
Pick it if you want to turn what worked into a plan and see whether it keeps holding. Your trading style does not matter: you name your own checks.
If you are unsure whether to pay for any journal yet, spreadsheet or app is a fair place to start.
What do they cost?
Tradervue: a free plan for up to thirty trades a month, then Silver at $29.95 a month and Gold at $49.95 a month. Its site says trial periods are available on the paid plans.

Questions people ask
Can I move my trades from Tradervue to EdgeFlow?
Yes, as a CSV file with a date, the prices and a buy or sell column. EdgeFlow also reads TopStep exports and MetaTrader 5 history reports. Your results come in. Your checks do not, so you tick them per trade or start from your next trade.
Can I use both?
Yes. Some traders keep the free Tradervue plan for charts and log the trades they want to study in EdgeFlow.
Does EdgeFlow work for stocks?
EdgeFlow is built for futures, forex and crypto traders. If you mainly trade stocks, a journal that names stocks, like Tradervue, is the safer pick.
When were these facts checked?
Checked on 11 October 2026, on tradervue.com and Tradervue's pricing page. Prices and features change, so check their site before you decide. If something here is out of date, tell us and we will fix it.
