A Free Trading Journal, No Card Required
You do not need a subscription to start journaling properly. The TradePulse Free plan gives you a real trading journal, with an equity curve, a P&L calendar and honest analytics, for nothing and with no credit card. Here is exactly what is included, and what changes when you are ready for more.
What you get for free
- Journal up to 50 trades with notes, tags and one chart screenshot per trade.
- An equity curve and a colour-coded P&L calendar to see your results at a glance.
- Core stats: win rate, average win versus loss, commission and swap, all on net numbers.
- Import a cTrader or MetaTrader 5 statement (CSV or HTML), up to the plan's 50-trade limit.
- No credit card, no trial countdown. The Free plan simply stays free.
Honest numbers from the start
Every metric uses net profit, including commission and swap, so your win rate and averages reflect what really happened. Add deposits and withdrawals by hand and your equity curve and returns stay honest too. It is a real journal, not a stripped demo.
When you are ready for more
The free plan is built to grow with you. Upgrading removes the trade cap and turns on the parts that fill the journal for you:
| Feature | Free | Paid |
|---|---|---|
| Manual journaling, notes, tags, screenshots | Yes | Yes |
| Equity curve, P&L calendar, core stats | Yes | Yes |
| Trade limit | 50 trades | 200/month (Early Access) / Unlimited (Pro) |
| cTrader auto-sync | No | Early Access & Pro |
| MetaTrader 5 auto-sync | No | Pro (from first payment) |
| Advanced analytics, AI insights, Account Guardian | No | Pro |
Auto-sync is where the journal stops being a chore: connect cTrader or MetaTrader 5 once and every closed trade, deposit and withdrawal imports on its own, with your past history backfilled. Pro comes with a 7-day free trial so you can watch it work before paying anything.
Free means free: up to 50 trades, no card, no expiry. Upgrade only when the auto-sync and unlimited history are worth it to you.
