What a trading journal subscription actually buys
A trading journal records every trade you take — entry, exit, size, fees and the reasoning behind it — so you can see which setups pay and which habits cost you. The recording part should be free, and on TradeReview it is: manual entry, Review Sessions and your dashboard cost nothing on the Free plan, with no trial clock.
What a paid plan buys is time and scale. Basic removes the typing by importing your broker's statements and handles multi-leg option spreads. Pro removes the importing too — trades sync from your broker on their own, across up to twenty accounts, which is what multi-account and prop-firm traders run into first. Both are month to month; nothing requires a year up front.
