Common questions

Is TradeDNA a good TradeZella alternative?

If all you want is a trade log, both products cover the fundamentals: unlimited logging, P&L calendars, analytics, playbooks, and broker imports. TradeDNA is built for traders who also want to understand the market behind their trades — every candle on your chart can be rewound to show the news, economic releases, and positioning data that were moving price while you were in the trade.

What is Market Rewind?

Market Rewind is TradeDNA's replay engine. Click any candle on any chart and TradeDNA reconstructs that moment: the headlines that were breaking, the economic events on the calendar, macro positioning, and — this is the part no market tool can copy — your own trades, journal entries, and psychological state overlaid on the same window.

How much does TradeDNA cost compared to TradeZella?

As of June 2026, TradeZella lists two plans at $29/mo and $49/mo. TradeDNA starts at $27/mo for the journal and discipline engine; Pro at $47/mo adds the AI coach, Market Rewind, and the full market-intelligence layer (live news, economic calendar, positioning data); Quant at $97/mo adds prop-firm challenge playbooks, daily coaching, and advanced analytics. Annual billing discounts every tier.

Can I bring my existing trade history into TradeDNA?

Yes. TradeDNA imports CSV exports from any broker, parses MetaTrader 4/5 and ActTrader statements directly, accepts TradingView webhook alerts, and auto-syncs MetaTrader, ActTrader, and TradeLocker accounts so new fills appear without manual work.

Does TradeDNA work for prop-firm traders?

Prop traders are a core audience. TradeDNA tracks Apex, Topstep, FTMO, and other challenge rules live, grades every trade against your plan, and flags violations the moment they happen — without ever blocking a trade. You stay in control; TradeDNA keeps the score.
