It is an excellent fit for traders who want to build highly customized views.

The differences
that change the decision.

Price is only useful beside the exact tier and feature. These points use TradesViz's current published plans and LynxTrades' implemented limits.

  1. $19 less on the annual bill

    Lynx Pro is $160 a year. TradesViz Pro is $14.99 a month billed annually, or about $179 a year. The entry paid plans are close, but several advanced TradesViz tools sit on the higher-priced Platinum tier.

  2. Replay and simulation stay in one tier

    Lynx Pro includes replay, Monte Carlo, what-if analysis and visible Kelly sizing analysis. TradesViz publishes replay, strategy backtesting and its advanced risk simulators on Platinum rather than the displayed Pro price.

  3. A guided surface instead of hundreds of controls

    LynxTrades uses a smaller set of opinionated dashboards for setups, sessions, behavior and risk. TradesViz exposes far more configurable charts. The better choice depends on whether you want the answer arranged for you or prefer to construct the view.

Choose for your
actual workflow.

The right journal is the one whose strongest tools match the work you repeat every week.

Choose TradesViz

Choose TradesViz if maximum report customization, market screeners, options flow, native mobile apps or historical backtesting are worth the denser interface and tiering.

Choose LynxTrades

Choose LynxTrades if you want a slightly lower annual bill, one complete paid tier, dedicated playbooks and a more guided path from journal entry to decision.
