The Problem. The Fix.

Why most traders stay stuck — and how BetterTrade breaks the cycle

🙄
"I keep making the same mistakes over and over"
✓
The coaching engine shows exactly which behaviours are costing you R — ranked by severity so you know what to fix first
📉
"I don't know where I'm actually losing money"
✓
Every leak is ranked by R cost — revenge trades, early exits, overtrading, edge decline — all quantified
📝
"I log trades, but I never come back to review them properly"
✓
Trade Reviews, Daily Journal, and Weekly Report keep the improvement loop moving after the trade is closed
🔁
"Manual journaling takes too long, so my trade log falls behind"
✓
Fast entry, saved templates, limited imports on Free, and MT5 Auto Sync on Pro reduce the work it takes to keep your journal current

Built for traders who actually want to improve

BetterTrade combines fast capture, structured reviews, habit-building journaling, and deeper Pro intelligence in one mobile workflow that stays useful after the trade is over.

🔍
Rule-Based Insights That Stay Actionable
The current BetterTrade analytics stack includes 12 built-in insight rules plus coach follow-up loops. Revenge trading, checklist misses, session weakness, setup quality, and behavior cost all get turned into clear next actions instead of vague motivation.
Rule-based guidance, not black-box AI
📝
A Full Journal Loop, Not Just a Logbook
Pre-trade plans, playbooks, post-trade reviews, daily journaling, and weekly reports all live in the same flow. BetterTrade keeps the context around each trade so you can improve the process, not just the spreadsheet.
Plan, review, learn, repeat
🔁
Capture Trades Your Way
Add trades manually with auto R:R, import BetterTrade JSON or generic CSV within Free plan limits, pull MetaTrader 5 statements, or unlock MT5 Auto Sync with Pro for automatic closed-trade capture.
Manual, import, or MT5 Auto Sync
📱
Mobile-First and Offline Friendly
BetterTrade is designed for the moment right after a trade closes, not only for end-of-week desk work. The app keeps a local cache for fast loading and syncs back up when you are online again.
Journal from your pocket, not your desk
⚡
Fast Entry That Remembers Context
Auto R:R, duplicate last trade, saved templates, symbol memory, and the latest full-form restore improvements mean repeated setups no longer require retyping the same plan and sizing context.
2 templates on Free, unlimited on Pro
📊
Analytics That Tell a Story
Free covers the basics such as win rate, P&L, average R, and core breakdowns. Pro unlocks deeper performance, behavior, trend, and coaching analysis when you want more depth.

FAQ

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. BetterTrade Free includes unlimited manual trade logging, trade reviews, daily journaling, the trade calendar, basic analytics, basic weekly reports, and the top 2 insights. Upgrade to Pro in-app when you want deeper analytics, full insights, MT5 Auto Sync, unlimited imports and exports, more customization, 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. You can stay on the free tier while you build the journaling habit, and Pro pricing is shown in-app through the store when you are ready for 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 offers MT5 Auto Sync. Free includes 1 import per month with up to 100 trades per import. BetterTrade Pro unlocks unlimited imports plus MT5 Auto Sync with 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 iPhone through the Apple App Store and on Android through Google Play.

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.
