What Free Gets You
The free plan is genuinely useful. You can:
- Build a complete trading plan (philosophy, mindset, why, risk, notes)
- Create one strategy with unlimited rules
- Create one routine with unlimited steps
- Run strategy flows and routine flows
- Sync everything across your devices via iCloud
- Use all dashboard widgets
For traders just starting out, or traders who have one focused setup they're working with, the free plan covers the essentials.
What Pro Adds
Multiple Strategies
If you trade more than one setup — different markets, different timeframes, different entry styles — you need a separate strategy for each. Pro removes the one-strategy limit entirely. Create as many as you need.
Multiple Routines
Pre-market, pre-trade, post-session, weekly review — serious traders run multiple routines for different purposes. Pro lets you create all of them.
Advanced Risk Management
The eight advanced risk sections (concurrent trade risk, correlation risk, spread risk, news risk, slippage risk, overnight risk, execution error protocol, conditions to trade, and technology risk) are Pro-only. These are the sections that move risk management from "basic" to "professional-grade." See Advanced Risk Features for details.
Who Should Upgrade?
You'll benefit from Pro if:
- You trade more than one strategy or want to develop multiple approaches
- You run different routines for different session types
- You want to build a comprehensive risk management framework
- You're serious about treating trading as a business
The free plan is probably fine if:
- You're learning and building your first strategy
- You have one focused setup you're working with
- You want to try the app before committing
