The core difference
TradeZella is an analytics platform: connect your broker, it imports everything and gives you fifty reports.
TradiBook is a discipline journal for funded accounts: what it measures isn't just how much you made but whether you followed your own plan and what breaking it costs you.
Neither is better or worse. They're different things, and it's worth knowing which one you want.
Where TradeZella wins
- Breadth of integrations. It connects to hundreds of brokers.
- Replay. You can watch your execution tick by tick on its top plan.
- Number of reports. They have more ways to slice the data.
- Maturity. They've been around for years and it shows.
The three things TradeZella doesn't have
And it's not a matter of time: they come from a different business model.
Lessons inside the journal, ordered by your mistake. Videos and short tips that arrange themselves around what you repeat most. If your mistake is moving the stop, that's the first lesson you see. TradeZella has a separate education platform; this is something else: the journal telling you what to study based on what's happening to you.
A human mentor. TradeZella has "Mentor Mode", a feature that lets a coach see your stats. Here the mentor comes with the product: you share your journal and someone reviews it with you, trade by trade.
The core difference: they're a software company selling a journal. This is run by a trader who also coaches other traders. TradiBook was born because its creator needed to track his own funded accounts and no tool measured what mattered to him. Building it for his case ended up fitting everyone's, because the problems are the same: the floor that moves, the accounts lost along the way and the plan that isn't followed. That shows in what gets measured and in what you're told.
The detail nobody else cares about. Each account carries its prop firm's official logo and color, not a list of grey text: with twelve accounts open you spot yours at a glance. And the journal adapts to you, not the other way around: card styles, light and dark theme, wallpapers and figures in money or percentage. The interface is minimal on purpose, to open every day without dread.
The days you decide not to trade. Counted as what they are: a trading decision, and one of those that save the most accounts.
Where TradiBook wins
- The free plan never expires. TradeZella has no free version, so you decide without having tried it with your data.
- It understands funded accounts. A trade on ten accounts is one signal, not ten. And your room is calculated with your firm's EOD drawdown, not a generic percentage.
- It measures discipline. Every trade records whether you followed your plan and, if not, what failed. That powers the "what if I followed the plan?" simulator and your most repeated mistakes.
- Price. €0 to start and €19.99 for the paid plan, vs $29-49.
Which one to choose
TradeZella if: you want the broadest broker coverage, tick-by-tick replay and the largest number of reports. In those things they beat us and we don't hide it.
TradiBook if: you trade funded accounts, want to measure discipline and not just results, want the lessons inside the journal itself, and would rather have someone review you than one more feature.
And if you're unsure: ours has a free plan with no expiry. A month with your real data will tell you more than this comparison.
Before deciding, if you trade funded accounts, read EOD vs static drawdown: it's the rule that takes the most accounts and almost no journal calculates it right.

What makes TradiBook different
Every journal imports trades and shows a win rate. Not this.
Apex, Topstep, FundedNext, Tradeify… each account with its firm's logo and color, not a list of grey text. You recognize the account at a glance.
Card styles, light and dark theme, wallpapers and figures in money or percentage. One tap to change and it stays that way.
Minimal and polished: no twenty-tab menus or endless tables. Works just as well on your phone as on your computer.
Almost every journal is built by a software team. This one is run by a trader who also coaches other traders every day.
Funded account trader and trading coach: he reviews other traders' trading and helps them stop blowing accounts. That's where TradiBook came from. He didn't build it to sell a product: he built it because he needed to track his own accounts and no tool measured what mattered to him. Building it for his case, it ended up fitting anyone who trades funded accounts, because the problems are the same: the floor that moves, the accounts lost along the way and the plan that isn't followed.
Plan adherence, no-trade days and what you repeat most, measured automatically. Free plan, no card.
