What is Trademetria?
Trademetria is web-based trading journal and portfolio-tracking software. It is a tool you pay for (or use free) to log, tag, and analyse your own trades across equities, options, futures, forex, CFDs, and crypto. It is not a broker and it is not a funded-trader program. There are no deposits at risk and there is nothing financially regulated about it, which is normal for this category.
The product is run by founder Thiago Ghilardi. The company self-reports more than 80,000 users and over 15 million trades logged, figures we attribute to the company because they are not independently verified. The Terms of Service describe a "Wyoming based company" at a Sheridan, Wyoming address, but that address is a known mass registered-agent and virtual-office location, and we could not confirm the entity on the Wyoming Secretary of State register. We treat the location as stated but unverified. By all available signals this is a small, bootstrapped operation of roughly one to ten people, which colours both its strengths (fast, founder-level support) and its weaknesses (a privacy policy that has not been refreshed since 2020).
Our verdict
Trademetria is a strong free and budget journal with a deep analytics and journaling toolkit, held back by auto-sync that costs more than its marketing implies, a hostile refund stance, and thin company transparency. If you are happy importing CSV files and you want a generous free tier with real analytics, it is one of the better options at the price. If you specifically want hands-off auto-sync, read the integration section carefully before you assume your broker is covered, and budget for the Pro plan. Our score lands in the mid-6s, in line with where the evidence puts it against rivals like Tradervue, TraderSync, and EdgeWonk.
We assess Trademetria from its public pages, terms, and privacy policy, its broker-sync blog posts, and aggregated user reviews. We have not connected a broker or synced an account.
Key features & specs
For a small team, Trademetria ships a wide feature set, and the analytics depth and the journaling workflow are the real reasons to consider it, not the integration breadth. You get more than 20 performance metrics including profit factor, expectancy, R-multiples, win rate, daily win rate, long/short ratios, and holding times, alongside strategy and instrument rankings and distribution by time and market condition. The journaling side adds a searchable WYSIWYG note editor, an unlimited searchable image journal, flexible tagging by strategy, mistake, and account, a trading calendar, and automatic entry/exit markers on price charts. The portfolio tracker layers on S&P and Nasdaq benchmarking, an equity curve, and consolidated multi-account open P&L, plus a P&L and trading simulator for scenario work. Power-user touches include mass editing, leg-level options spread tracking with spread reports, transaction tracking for deposits, withdrawals, fees, and dividends, trade sharing with mentors, gamified trade challenges, and a REST API for custom apps. Advertised AI Insights and AI Assistant features exist, but we cannot confirm which tier they belong to, so we do not credit them to the free plan.

| Company & track record | Trading-journal SaaS founded by Thiago Ghilardi. The company says it launched in 2016 and serves 80,000+ users with 15M+ trades logged (self-reported, not independently verified). The Terms of Service describe a "Wyoming based company" at 1309 Coffeen Avenue Ste 1200, Sheridan, WY 82801, but that is a known mass registered-agent / virtual-office address and the entity could not be confirmed on the Wyoming Secretary of State register, so we treat the location as stated but unverified. By all signals a small, bootstrapped operation (roughly 1-10 people). No data breach, lawsuit, or regulator action naming Trademetria was found. | Trademetria Terms of Service ↗ |
| Software status | Journaling software, not a regulated financial firm. It holds no financial licence, holds no funds, and executes no orders, which is normal and expected for a journal. There are no deposits at risk. | Trademetria ↗ |
| Pricing & plans | Three tiers. Free $0/mo (30 order imports/mo, 1 account, 3 open positions, no auto-sync). Basic $19.95/mo monthly or $14.10/mo billed annually ($169/yr, "saves 30%"): 500 imports/mo, 1 account, 200 open positions, CSV import only. Pro $29.95/mo monthly or $20.80/mo billed annually ($249/yr): unlimited imports, 50 accounts, unlimited open positions, and the only plan with broker auto-sync. Payment via PayPal and Stripe. | Trademetria ↗ |
| Free tier & trial | Genuinely useful free plan at $0/mo with the full analytics and journaling engine, capped at 30 order imports a month, 1 account, and 3 open positions (no auto-sync). The free trial is framed as full access "for up to 200 page views" with no credit card required. | Trademetria ↗ |
| Integrations & data import | Marketing cites "300+", "1500+", and "140+" integrations, but those are total import-compatibility figures, overwhelmingly CSV / file upload. True live auto-sync covers only 21 platforms: Alpaca, Bitget, Bitmex, Charles Schwab, Etrade (via Alerts), Fidelity, Interactive Brokers, Kraken, Kucoin, MT4, MT5, Moomoo, Power Etrade, Questrade, Robinhood, Stake, Tastytrade, Tradestation, Tradier, Tradovate, Webull. Everything else (Binance, Coinbase, Oanda, Forex.com, eToro, FXCM, IG, Plus500, NinjaTrader, ThinkorSwim, TradingView, FTMO, FundedNext, and many others) is manual CSV / file import. Auto-sync of any kind requires the Pro plan. No integrations are marked coming-soon. | Trademetria ↗ |
| Supported assets | Equities, options, futures, forex, CFDs, and crypto (with some limits on illiquid options and leveraged crypto). All asset classes available on every plan including Free. | Trademetria ↗ |

Cites TLS 1.2+, encrypted/undecryptable passwords, daily online and offline backups, semi-annual audits by unnamed certified experts, Cloudflare, and an A+ SSL Labs grade; card data is handled only by Stripe and PayPal. Named third parties: Google Analytics, Stripe, PayPal, Cloudflare. Data is hosted and processed in the US. On account close, all data is deleted except email, hashed password, signup date, plan, and order data.

Pricing & value
Trademetria runs three tiers, and the value story changes sharply depending on how you import trades. The Free plan is genuinely useful rather than a teaser: $0 a month, 30 order imports, one account, three open positions, and the full analytics and journaling engine. For a part-time trader logging a handful of positions, that is a real journal at no cost, and it is one reason editorial aggregators have flagged Trademetria as a strong free option. Basic costs $19.95 a month, or $14.10 a month billed annually, which works out to $169 a year and is marketed as saving 30 percent. It lifts you to 500 imports a month and 200 open positions, but it is still CSV import only.
Pro is $29.95 a month, or $20.80 a month billed annually at $249 a year, and it is the only plan that unlocks broker auto-sync, unlimited imports, and up to 50 accounts. The critical point for value: if auto-sync is what you want, your real price is the Pro plan, not the Basic headline. That puts Trademetria in the same neighbourhood as TraderSync and Tradervue rather than undercutting them. Where it genuinely wins is the free and Basic end of the market for traders who do not mind importing files. The free trial is unusual, framed as full access "for up to 200 page views" with no credit card required, which is a low-commitment way to evaluate the whole product.
Free plan available; paid plans billed monthly or annually (30% annual discount); free trial up to 200 page views, no card| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Key limits | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | $0 | 30 imports/mo, 1 account, 3 open positions, no auto-sync | Trying the tool or very low-volume traders |
| Basic | $19.95/mo | $14.10/mo ($169/yr) | 500 imports/mo, 1 account, 200 open positions, CSV only | Active traders who import manually |
| Pro | $29.95/mo | $20.80/mo ($249/yr) | Unlimited imports, 50 accounts, unlimited open positions, auto-sync | Multi-account traders who want auto-sync |
Data privacy & security
Trademetria is unregulated, because trading-journal software is not a financial product. There are no deposits and nothing for a regulator to license. That is normal and not a mark against it. What matters instead is how it handles your trade data and broker credentials, and the picture here is mostly reassuring with one clear gap.
On data, the company's stated posture is reassuring on paper. The policy commits that it does not sell your data, cites TLS 1.2+, an A+ SSL Labs grade, Cloudflare in front, encrypted and undecryptable passwords, daily online and offline backups, and that card data is handled only by Stripe and PayPal. Named third parties are limited to Google Analytics, Stripe, PayPal, and Cloudflare, data is hosted and processed in the US, and on account closure everything is deleted except your email, hashed password, signup date, plan, and order data. On credentials, the MT4 and MT5 sync is a real standout for safety: the platform pushes an HTML file of transactions to Trademetria's own FTP credentials, so you never share your broker login, no expert advisor is installed, and the feed is read-only closed trades. We will not generalise it, though. For the other API brokers such as Tradovate, Robinhood, Tradier, and the Interactive Brokers API path, Trademetria does not publicly document how the connection authenticates, whether by OAuth, an API key, or a login. The clear limitations on the data side: the privacy policy is dated March 2, 2020, more than six years old, and the "semi-annual audits by certified experts" are by unnamed parties with no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 attestation. The load-bearing privacy commitment reads:
“refunds will only be issued in cases where coding errors, which cannot be resolved by our team after notification, continue to persist. Pro-rated refunds will be given only to users who wish to upgrade from their basic plan subscription to a pro plan subscription.”
Trademetria Terms of Service, Terms of Service, Section 3 (Refund Policy), accessed June 2026 TOS ↗
The refund and billing terms are the harder problem. The Terms of Service state that refunds "will only be issued in cases where coding errors, which cannot be resolved by our team after notification, continue to persist," with pro-rated refunds available only when upgrading from Basic to Pro. Billing terminates after five failed payment attempts: "If payment is not received after 5 attempts, your subscription will be automatically canceled." You can cancel at any time from your settings page and keep access to the end of the paid period, which is fair, but the no-refund stance is genuinely hostile and a verified user has called it unfair in print.
What traders say
The most trustworthy signal we have is Capterra, where Trademetria holds a directly verified 4.7 out of 5 from 25 reviews. We treat that as solid but small. Trustpilot we could not verify directly because the page returned a 403; secondary sources suggested roughly 4.0 from about 5 reviews and an older 3.3 from 8, so we do not publish a specific Trustpilot figure as fact. Editorial aggregators land in a wider band, from a 6.3 out of 10 at one tracker to around 4.0 to 4.1 out of 5 at others, with several positioning it as a strong free option for budget traders.
The recurring theme in the praise is support, described across Capterra reviews as "out of this world" and "second to none," including a decimal-and-comma import bug fixed in around five minutes. For a small team, fast founder-level support is a real edge. The complaints cluster around import reliability for complex trades, the lack of a native app, and billing. If your strategy leans on multi-leg options, weigh the import-accuracy reports carefully. We will also note a ScamAdviser trust score of 0, but only to dismiss it fairly: it is automated, driven by hidden WHOIS and a "high-risk financial services" category flag rather than user fraud reports, and it sits against counter-signals like a ten-year-old domain, valid SSL, and a clean DNSFilter rating.

“Importing complex option trades can be a nightmare if you have a lot of trades, it doesn't seem like it's ever calculating my imports 100% correctly.”

Pros & cons
The balance below is a deep, affordable journal with strong support set against thin transparency and auto-sync that costs more than the marketing suggests. The strengths cluster around analytics, journaling, and price; the weaknesses cluster around integration reach, company transparency, and billing.
- Genuinely useful free tier with the full analytics and journaling engine
- Low Basic price ($14.10/mo billed annually) for active importers
- 20+ performance metrics plus strategy and instrument rankings and benchmarking
- Flexible tagging and an unlimited searchable image journal
- Credential-safe MT4/MT5 sync via Trademetria's own FTP, no broker login shared, no EA
- Multi-account consolidated P&L with S&P and Nasdaq benchmarking
- Verified, fast, highly praised customer support (Capterra 4.7/5)
- Clear no-data-selling commitment stated in the privacy policy
- Auto-sync is Pro-only and limited to 21 platforms; the big integration numbers are mostly CSV import
- Authentication method undocumented for non-MetaTrader API brokers (Tradovate, Robinhood, Tradier, IB API)
- Hostile refund policy: refunds only for unresolved coding errors, pro-rated only on Basic-to-Pro upgrade
- Privacy policy dated March 2020 with no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 attestation; company legitimacy thinly documented
- No native mobile app (PWA only); recurring complaints about complex options-import accuracy
Trademetria vs alternatives
Against the journals we already cover, Trademetria competes hardest at the bottom of the price ladder. Its free tier is more generous than most, and Basic at $14.10 a month billed annually undercuts a lot of paid competitors. But once you need auto-sync, Pro at $20.80 a month annually sits right alongside TraderSync and Tradervue, both of which we score slightly higher (7.0 and 6.7 respectively), and EdgeWonk (7.1) takes a different one-time-fee approach entirely.
Where Trademetria differentiates is the credential-safe MT4/MT5 path and the portfolio-tracker features like benchmarking and consolidated multi-account P&L. Where rivals pull ahead is breadth of true auto-sync, clearer security attestations, and native mobile apps. If you trade MT4/MT5 or you want a strong free journal, Trademetria is competitive. If you want the widest hands-off sync and a phone app, look at the higher-scoring rivals first.
How Trademetria compares to the next tools in our trading journals ranking:
| Metric | Trademetria | EdgeWonk | TraderSync |
|---|---|---|---|
| Our score | 6.5/10 | 7.1/10 | 7.0/10 |
| Starting price | Free; Basic $14.10/mo annually | $197/year (no free tier) | 7-day trial, then $29.95/mo |
| Best for | Budget and CSV-importing traders who want deep analytics, especially MT4/MT5 users | MetaTrader traders who want the deepest psychology and discipline analytics | Active multi-asset traders who want deep analytics plus a market-replay simulator |
| Regulation | Offshore | Offshore | Offshore |
| Full review | This page | EdgeWonk review → | TraderSync review → |
In short: EdgeWonk edges ahead of Trademetria in the overall ranking, but budget and CSV-importing traders who want deep analytics, especially MT4/MT5 users is where Trademetria makes its strongest case.
Who is Trademetria for?
Use Trademetria if…
Use Trademetria if you want a capable free or low-cost journal with real analytics, you import trades from CSV without complaint, you trade MT4/MT5 and value the credential-safe sync, or you run multiple accounts and want consolidated P&L with benchmarking. The generous free tier and full-feature trial let you confirm the tool suits you before paying.
Skip it if…
Skip it if you need hands-off auto-sync for a broker outside the 21 supported platforms, you rely on complex multi-leg options imports being perfect, you want a native mobile app, or you are uncomfortable with a no-refund policy and a privacy policy that has not been updated since 2020.
Final verdict
Trademetria is a mature, feature-rich journal that is genuinely strong at the free and budget end and backed by support that users rate highly. The trade-off is real: the auto-sync you may be picturing is a Pro-tier feature covering 21 platforms, the big integration numbers are mostly file imports, the refund policy is hostile, and the company is thinly documented with an aging privacy policy. None of that makes it a bad tool, and for CSV-importing or MT4/MT5 traders on a budget it is a smart pick. It just is not the cheap, universal auto-sync journal the marketing can imply. Weighed honestly, it earns a 6.5 out of 10.
A genuinely capable free and low-cost journal with strong analytics, but the auto-sync the marketing implies is a Pro-tier feature limited to 21 platforms. Open a demo account to try the platform risk-free, then fund a live account when you're ready. Trading carries risk.
