Why traders leave TradeZella
TradeZella is a great product for US equities and futures traders on a budget of $468/year. Three complaints keep showing up when traders move away: price (especially in EUR/PLN once FX is applied), no native cTrader sync, and no dedicated prop firm rule tracker. If any of those is a deal-breaker, this page is for you.
TradeLogic was built by traders who spent 2 years using TradeZella, TraderSync and Edgewonk. Everything we missed we baked in — 12+ prop firm rulesets, native cTrader/OANDA OAuth, AI analytics grounded in your own trades, a free tier that stays free.
TradeLogic vs TradeZella — the honest gap
TradeZella is better at: polished bar-replay backtesting, US options analytics depth. If those decide your workflow, stay on TradeZella — it earns its price for that use case.
TradeLogic is better at: price ($4.99 vs $39), prop firm rule tracking (12 firms shipped vs 0), native cTrader OAuth, real free tier forever, crypto perp sync (Binance/Bybit/OKX with funding + fees), EU data hosting, PIT-38 tax export for PL traders.
Migrating from TradeZella takes 5 minutes
Export your TradeZella trades to CSV — settings → export. Drag the file into TradeLogic's importer. Columns auto-map. Screenshots, tags, notes and R-multiples come across intact. If you use MT4/MT5/cTrader, reconnect the broker instead — you get cleaner fills with commission and swap included.
Nothing is destroyed on TradeZella's side. Run both in parallel for a week if you want; most traders cancel TradeZella by day 4 once they realise the free tier already covers what they were paying $39 for.
Pricing in plain numbers
TradeZella Basic $29/mo, Premium $39/mo. TradeLogic PRO $4.99/mo or 19.99 PLN. Annual: TradeZella ~$468, TradeLogic ~$60. That's 8× cheaper. Free tier on TradeLogic covers unlimited manual trades and basic stats — no card, no trial timer.
What TradeZella users miss on day one after switching
Two things. First, TradeZella's replay tool — TradeLogic has rules-vs-fills replay but not TradeZella's bar-by-bar chart scrubber. Second, TradeZella's onboarding wizard is more polished. If either matters, budget a day to explore TradeLogic's Statistics tab, which goes deeper on setup/session/day-of-week breakdowns than TradeZella's default views.
