Frequently asked questions
Does Tradervue have a free tier?
Yes, 100 stock trades per month for free. CrossTrade has a 7-day free trial but no free tier. If you're starting out and trade stocks lightly, Tradervue's free tier is a no-brainer entry point.
Is Tradervue better for futures trading?
Tradervue supports futures but is more equity-focused historically. CrossTrade is built around NT8 futures specifically. For pure futures journaling on NT8, our setup is simpler. For multi-asset traders who happen to trade some futures, Tradervue's broader support fits better.
What does Tradervue do that CrossTrade doesn't?
Free tier, broader asset class coverage, longer track record, and the simplest entry point for new journal users. Their feature set is stable rather than bleeding-edge.
Should I switch to CrossTrade if I'm on Tradervue's paid plan?
Only if you also need CrossTrade's webhooks, copier, or risk management. Tradervue is a working product; switching just to switch isn't worth it.
Is Tradervue Gold worth $49/mo?
For active traders, the exit analysis and advanced charting in Gold deliver value. CrossTrade Pro is also $49/mo but bundles execution tools too. Different propositions. Tradervue is a deeper journal, CrossTrade is a journal-plus-everything-else.
