OnDeck Trading Journal — Pricing
Free while you learn your numbers.
The full trading journal is free — forever, no account, no card. Pro is $12 a month when it opens, and it opens to the waitlist first. This page says plainly what is live today and what is not.
The complete CSV journal. Live today.
- Full headline stats — PF, win rate, expectancy, streaks, drawdown
- Equity curve + P&L calendar heatmap
- Per-symbol, per-month and per-style slicing; the leak report
- Options pairing with full contract identity
- Honest import report on every file — nothing silently dropped
- AI Briefing Pack + bring-your-own-key AI review
- Unlimited CSV imports — Robinhood today, more adapters rolling out
- Computed in your browser — nothing uploaded, no account
Not on sale yet. Pro opens to the waitlist when read-only broker sync is ready and the waitlist shows the demand — nobody is billed today.
- Everything in Free, forever included
- Read-only broker sync (SnapTrade) — sign in at your broker, we never see your password
- Every broker CSV adapter, day one
- Playbooks & setup tagging
- House AI session review — no key of your own needed
- Shareable stat cards
Why does sync sit in Pro? Sync runs through SnapTrade, which charges per connected user. CSV imports cost us nothing to serve, so the CSV journal is free — and stays free after Pro opens.
No fine print
Live today vs. on the waitlist.

The comparison
What the big journal charges.
TradeZella is a good product with a different shape: it sells broker sync and trade replay, stores your history on its servers, and starts at $35 a month with no free plan and no free trial. We sell privacy and price, with sync in build. Compare honestly — if you need replay today, they have it and we do not.

Straight answers
Before you ask.
Do I need an account?
No. Open the Journal, drop a CSV, read your numbers. There is nothing to sign up for in the free tier.
Where does my trade data go?
Nowhere. It is parsed and computed in your browser tab. We could not see your trades if we wanted to — that is the point of the design.
When does Pro open?
When read-only broker sync is ready and the waitlist shows the demand. Join the weekly letter and you will hear it from us — with the date, not a teaser.
What happens to Free when Pro opens?
Nothing. The CSV journal stays free forever. Pro pays for the things that cost us money per user — sync first among them.
Run your book before you pay anyone anything.
The free Journal takes one CSV and about ten seconds. If it earns a place in your routine, the Pro waitlist is one click.
