Why most traders stay stuck — and how BetterTrade breaks the cycle
Built for traders who actually want to improve
BetterTrade is built around the full feedback loop: capture the trade, review the decision, spot the pattern, and carry one clear focus into the next session.
The site now matches the current app roadmap
BetterTrade has moved well beyond simple trade logging. These release notes come from the app's own README and changelog so the public site reflects the same source of truth.
BetterTrade can now pair with MetaTrader 5 for automatic closed-trade sync, remote trade alerts, connection management, and a simpler setup flow built around one API key plus the compiled EX5 EA.
Post-trade reviews now live on their own screen with pending and completed queues, and completed reviews survive refreshes because the local cache keeps the full review payload.

Common questions
Everything you need to know before you download.
Is BetterTrade really free?
Yes - genuinely free. Download it, sign up, and start logging trades with zero cost and no credit card. The free tier gives you 50 lifetime trade writes, trade reviews, daily journaling, trade calendar, import and export tools, and reminder notifications. Upgrade to Pro in-app when you want unlimited trade writes, deeper analytics, and an ad-free workspace.
Why is BetterTrade so much cheaper than other journals?
BetterTrade is built mobile-first with a tighter scope around journaling, review flow, and practical analytics instead of a heavy desktop platform. The current Pro price is $4.99/month or $29.99/year, and you can stay on the free tier until you need more depth.
How does the Smart Insight Engine work?
It is a rule-based coaching system, not a black-box trade signal generator. The current BetterTrade release includes 12 built-in insight rules that analyze your journal for issues such as revenge trading, risk drift, session weakness, checklist misses, and behavior cost. Results are ranked by severity so you know what to tackle first.
Can I import or auto-sync trades from MetaTrader 5?
Yes. BetterTrade imports MetaTrader 5 HTML and CSV account history exports, supports generic CSV, and now offers MT5 Auto Sync. The current setup flow is built around one generated API key and the compiled BetterTradeMt5SyncEA.ex5 Expert Advisor.
Is my trading data secure and private?
Yes. BetterTrade uses Firebase Authentication, Firestore access controls, and App Check-backed protections for core app data. Screenshot uploads and certain helper flows use Cloudflare services, and all traffic is encrypted in transit. You can permanently delete your account and linked data at any time from inside the app.
Does the app work offline?
Yes. BetterTrade keeps a local cache so your journal and much of the analytics UI stay usable even when you lose connection. When you are back online, the app syncs changes and refreshes cloud data automatically.
What is the Trader Health Score?
A 100-point score computed from your actual trade history across 4 pillars: Win Rate (25 pts), Expectancy (30 pts), Risk Control (25 pts), and Discipline (20 pts). It places you in one of five tiers - Beginner, Learning, Developing, Proficient, or Elite - and updates automatically as you log more trades. Requires at least 10 closed trades.
What platforms does BetterTrade support?
BetterTrade is currently available on Android through Google Play. This site does not announce a public iOS release date.
Can I delete my account and all my data?
Yes, at any time. Go to Profile, scroll to Danger Zone, and tap Delete Account in the app. Your trade journal data, screenshots, feedback records, and import-support files tied to the account are deleted as part of that flow. See the Delete Account page for full details.
