Why it matters
Free should mean free
Most journals either have no free tier or a trial with a countdown. Traders Vault's Free plan keeps working forever.
2 accounts, forever
Enough for a demo and a live account, or a live and a funded account. No time limit, no credit card.
Manual + CSV import
Log trades by hand or import CSV from your broker. Same tags, calendars and core analytics as paid users.
Weekly report export
Get a shareable weekly performance summary even on the free plan. The Free tier covers two accounts with manual entry, CSV import, tags, calendars, core analytics and weekly report export at $0. Pro at $25 per month adds unlimited accounts, auto-sync, AI insights and full export.
FAQ
Free plan questions, answered.
Is Traders Vault really free?
Yes. The Free tier is genuinely free: two accounts, manual entry, CSV import, tags, calendars, core analytics and weekly report export, all at $0 with no credit card required and no time limit. It is not a trial. You can use it forever without paying, and upgrade to Pro at $25 per month only when you want auto-sync, unlimited accounts, AI insights and full export. In our 2026 audit we checked 356 brokers and prop firms one by one against their own sites, and the brokers table on our home page shows the evidence for each one. The journal never sees your broker password or login credentials; only your closed trades and the account nickname leave the terminal.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free gives you two accounts, manual entry, CSV import, tags, calendars, core analytics and weekly report export at $0. Pro at $25 per month adds unlimited accounts, auto-sync on MT4, MT5 and cTrader, AI insights and automated session reviews, weekly reports plus full export, and priority support. The free plan is a complete journal; Pro removes the limits and automates the capture. Data is stored on Cloudflare, identity is handled by Auth0, billing by Stripe, and the AI that answers your insight questions runs on DeepSeek. No credit card is required for Free, there are no setup fees, and you can cancel in one click.
Which free trading journal is best?
The best free trading journal depends on what you trade. If you want automatic capture from MT4, MT5 and cTrader plus a real free tier, Traders Vault is the strongest option in 2026: Free covers two accounts at $0 forever, and Pro at $25 sits under TradeZella's $35 and TraderSync's $29.95 entry tiers. Tradervue also offers a free plan, while TradeZella and TraderSync have none. In our 2026 audit we checked 356 brokers and prop firms one by one against their own sites, and the brokers table on our home page shows the evidence for each one. The journal never sees your broker password or login credentials; only your closed trades and the account nickname leave the terminal.
