TRADEOLOGY.APP VS EDGEWONK

    Edgewonk alternative: start free. Pay monthly. Cancel anytime.

    Edgewonk has been a trusted journal for over a decade. But annual-only billing and no auto-sync hold some traders back. TradeOlogy.App offers a modern alternative with monthly flexibility.

    WHERE THE DIFFERENCE SHOWS

    Flexibility vs commitment

    Monthly billing, not annual lock-in

    Edgewonk only offers annual ($197/yr) or biennial ($297/2yr) billing. There is no monthly option - you pay before you try (with a 14-day money-back guarantee).

    TradeOlogy.App is $15/mo with a 7-day free trial. Try it with your real trades before spending a dollar. Cancel anytime if it's not the right fit.

    True auto-sync vs manual imports

    Edgewonk relies on CSV imports and broker file exports. Every trading session requires manual data entry to keep your journal current.

    TradeOlogy.App connects directly to 25+ brokerages. Trades sync automatically - your journal stays up to date without any manual work.

    Try before you commit

    Paying $197 upfront for a tool you haven't used is a real consideration. The upfront cost can be a barrier for traders exploring journaling for the first time.

    TradeOlogy.App's 7-day free trial removes the risk. Connect your broker, explore the analytics, and decide with real data - not a sales page.

    Why traders choose TradeOlogy.App over Edgewonk

    Want to start small and scale

    At $15/mo you can start journaling today and keep paying only if it helps - no large upfront commitment to get going.

    More analytics out of the box

    Edgewonk's Tiltmeter and Edge Finder are strong. TradeOlogy.App adds 40+ analytics with session tracking and strategy performance.
