TraderSync

TraderSync is a trading journal and analytics platform: it brings in trades you’ve already executed elsewhere — automatically where your broker or platform supports it, or by file import where it doesn’t — and turns them into a journal and a set of performance reports. Alongside the journal, it offers a Market Replay simulator for practicing on historical market data, and an AI assistant called Cypher. It is not a broker; TraderSync’s terms state that it is not registered as a broker-dealer.

What TraderSync is

At its core, TraderSync is post-trade review software. Trades flow in from supported brokers and platforms, and TraderSync organizes them into a journal with notes and custom tags, then analyzes them across a wide set of reports. Two practice-oriented features sit beside the journal: Trade Replay, for re-watching the market around trades you’ve already taken, and Market Replay, a simulator for trading through historical sessions. On the top Elite plan, TraderSync adds automated, rule-based backtesting and a proactive coaching mode for Cypher. TraderSync covers stocks, options, futures, forex, and crypto.

Importing trades and broker connections

TraderSync’s pricing page lists automatic trade sync on every plan. Whether a specific connection syncs automatically is set out in TraderSync’s supported-broker directory, which marks each connection with an “Autosync” flag; TraderSync states that connections without that flag are handled by exporting trades from the broker or platform and importing the file. Manual entry and a generic import option are also listed. TraderSync advertises “700+ Supported Brokers”; the directory we reviewed on September 25, 2026 listed 493 unique entries, some of which are import methods rather than brokers — so it’s worth checking your own broker or platform in the directory, and whether it syncs automatically, rather than relying on a headline count.

Journal and analytics

The analytics are the most consistently available part of the product: TraderSync’s comparison table lists the same reporting set on every plan. That includes target and stop execution tracking, maximum favorable and adverse excursion (MFE/MAE) statistics, rolling-exit analytics for scaled exits, exit-efficiency and optimal-exit analysis, running P&L charts showing how each trade evolved from entry to exit, a risk exposure report, trade chart visualization, drill-down reporting, side-by-side trade comparisons, and advanced filtering. Journaling itself covers per-trade notes and custom tags, and fees and commissions are applied automatically based on the broker. Trade planning and TraderSync’s Strategy Checker — tools for defining a strategy and trade plan and tracking adherence to them — are limited on Pro and unlimited on Premium and Elite.

TraderSync for futures traders

Futures are an explicit part of TraderSync rather than an afterthought: futures import is listed on every plan, and TraderSync describes auto-detecting futures contracts in its reports. How futures trades get in depends on the connection. TraderSync’s directory marks NinjaTrader and Tradovate as futures connections with automatic sync, and the Tradovate page describes syncing futures contracts, micro E-minis, and NFA fees directly. Interactive Brokers, TradeStation, and Charles Schwab / TDA are also marked for futures with automatic sync. Other futures connections are file-import only in the same directory — Rithmic R Trader, for example, is documented as uploading your trading history rather than syncing it. For practice, TraderSync’s Market Replay covers historical CME futures markets on every plan. Two things aren’t established for futures: automated backtesting, which TraderSync documents for stocks, forex, and crypto only, and Level II order-book replay, which TraderSync’s pricing page describes as stocks-only even though its futures page promotes Level II data.

Trade Replay, Market Replay, and automated backtesting

TraderSync uses these three terms for different things, and it helps to keep them apart. Trade Replay re-plays the market around trades you’ve already taken; TraderSync describes it as re-watching price action “down to 250 milliseconds” for both trades and quotes. Market Replay is a simulator: you trade through historical sessions as practice, with indicators, multiple charts, speed control, and jump-to-date navigation on every plan, and practice trades are logged into TraderSync’s analytics. TraderSync’s own pricing copy describes Market Replay as supporting “backtesting” across stocks, futures, crypto, and forex — in the sense of manually testing a strategy by trading it through replayed history. Market Replay precision depends on the plan: 1-minute on Pro, 1-second on Premium, and 250 milliseconds on Elite. Replay tools such as Level II, Time & Sales, Watchlist, Key Stats, and Screeners are Elite-only. Automated backtesting is separate again: building rule-based strategies and testing them against historical data with automated results. It is Elite-only and documented for stocks, forex, and crypto.

Cypher and Cypher Coach

Cypher is TraderSync’s AI assistant. TraderSync describes it as helping you analyze your trades, identify patterns, improve strategies, and plan ahead, and you interact with it by asking questions about your trades. Each plan has a daily message allowance: 5 messages per day on Pro, 15 on Premium, and 60 on Elite. Cypher Coach is a separate, Elite-only feature that TraderSync describes as proactively monitoring your trades, finding patterns, and giving feedback without you having to ask.

Plans and pricing

TraderSync offers three plans. At the time of verification, monthly billing on TraderSync’s website was listed at $29.95/month for Pro, $49.95/month for Premium, and $79.95/month for Elite. Annual billing was also offered, but the annual prices shown when we checked were part of a time-limited promotion, so we don’t quote them here; check TraderSync’s pricing page for the current annual rate. In broad terms:

• Pro includes automatic sync, the full analytics set, Market Replay at 1-minute precision, and 5 Cypher messages per day, with limits on trading accounts (5), strategies, and trade plans.
• Premium raises Market Replay to 1-second precision and Cypher to 15 messages per day, and removes the strategy and trade-plan limits.
• Elite adds 250-millisecond Market Replay precision, 60 Cypher messages per day, Cypher Coach, the Advanced Market Tools in replay, and automated backtesting.

Two points on the pricing page itself don’t line up. Premium and Elite account limits are shown as “Unlimited” in most places but as 20 and 50 in one tooltip, so confirm the limit you need before subscribing. The Pro plan card marks Trade Replay as unavailable, while the comparison table lists Trade Replay on Pro; Premium and Elite include it in both. Subscriptions bought through TraderSync’s iOS app are listed on the App Store at different prices from the website’s. Prices checked September 25, 2026; confirm current pricing directly with TraderSync.

Trial, billing, and refunds

Every plan offers a 7-day free trial, which TraderSync describes as full access to most features, excluding exporting trades and executions. Whether a payment card is required to start the trial isn’t stated on the pages we reviewed. Subscriptions renew monthly or annually until cancelled, and can be cancelled at any time from the account. TraderSync’s billing policy states that all payments are non-refundable and that pro-rated refunds aren’t offered, and its terms likewise state that paid subscription fees are non-refundable. The billing policy is dated March 2020 and says only credit cards are accepted, while the terms, dated May 2023, mention credit card or PayPal.

Where TraderSync falls short

The biggest practical limit is plan gating: Cypher Coach, the Advanced Market Tools, and automated backtesting all sit on Elite, the most expensive plan. Automated backtesting’s documented scope is stocks, forex, and crypto, so automated, rule-based futures backtesting isn’t established by TraderSync’s current documentation; the documented futures practice tool is Market Replay. Import convenience varies by connection — some futures platforms sync automatically, others require file uploads. TraderSync’s own pricing page is inconsistent on a few details, including Premium and Elite account limits and whether Pro includes Trade Replay, which makes it worth confirming specifics before buying. TraderSync offers a 7-day trial, and its published billing policy and terms state that paid subscription fees are non-refundable.

Who TraderSync is best for

TraderSync fits traders who execute elsewhere and want their trades flowing into a journal automatically, with detailed exit, excursion, and risk analytics on top. It’s a natural match for futures traders on a documented automatic-sync connection such as NinjaTrader or Tradovate, and for traders who want a replay simulator — including historical CME futures — in the same product as their journal. Traders who specifically want automated backtesting or proactive AI coaching should plan on the Elite tier.

Who should look elsewhere

Futures traders who need automated, rule-based backtesting should note that TraderSync’s current documentation doesn’t establish it for futures; its automated backtesting section lists stocks, forex, and crypto. Traders whose broker or platform is file-import only should weigh whether manual uploads fit their routine. Anyone who needs refundable billing, or who wants to keep using a journal beyond a trial without paying, should factor in TraderSync’s paid, non-refundable plans.
