Boilerplate (copy-paste ready)
One sentenceWhat it does
Trade Journal AI is an AI-powered trading journal built crypto-first — solving four problems that mainstream journals (designed for US equities) struggle with for crypto traders: 24/7 markets with no daily session boundary, perpetual funding payments that distort P&L if logged as flat trades, multi-exchange flow across CEX and DEX venues, and wallet-based exchanges that don't have API keys. Multi-asset expansion to futures and stocks is on the roadmap; CSV import for any broker works today as a fallback.
Distinct features include:
- Native crypto broker sync — Bitunix (API), Hyperliquid (wallet-address — no HMAC), Binance USDT-M Futures (read-only API). Funding payments tracked separately. Partial fills reconciled with weighted-average entry.
- AI Coach grounded in the full journal — reads every note, rule, and reflection (not just trade rows) as context for each question. Built on Anthropic's Claude Sonnet. Same model across every pricing option.
- A+/A/B/C setup grading + position sizing — popularized by Lance Breitstein. Every trade gets a setup grade; position sizing scales with grade quality.
- TradingView Pine Script integration — webhook-fired trade-intent rows. Pine Script alerts can push pre-filled trade rows into the journal at the moment they trigger.
- Embedded TradingView charts — full chart embed in every trade view rather than static screenshots.
- Rules-based discipline tracking — revenge-trade detection, sizing-drift alerts, plan-violation callouts surfaced in real time.
- Custom dashboards — 39+ widgets, drag-and-drop layouts.
- BYOK option — bring your own Anthropic API key for unlimited usage at metered Anthropic cost.
Key facts for fact-checkers
The following are verifiable claims used in marketing and editorial copy. Each is fact-checkable against the live product or the underlying public sources.
- Pricing: $19.95/month or $195/year, single tier. Optional $9.95/month Unlimited AI add-on. tradejournal.ai/pricing
- AI model: Anthropic Claude Sonnet, accessed via the Anthropic API. Same model across all pricing options.
- Broker count: 3 native crypto integrations connectable (Bitunix and Hyperliquid live; Binance USDT-M Futures in beta); Bybit and OKX in public beta (access opening in batches); approximately 21 additional crypto exchanges on the published roadmap.
- Unique broker auth: Trade Journal AI is, to the best of our knowledge, the only mainstream trading journal that connects to Hyperliquid via wallet-address (read-only) rather than requiring API keys or HMAC signing.
- Setup-grading framework: The A+/A/B/C system is credited to Lance Breitstein (equities prop trader; teaches the framework on YouTube). Spelling: Breitstein, not Bernstein.
- Data handling: AI Coach context is sent to Anthropic only for the duration of the AI request being processed. Anthropic's API terms commit to not training on data submitted through the paid API. Trade Journal AI does not share user entries with other users or use them to train any internal model.
- Account cancellation: Canceled accounts are kept in read-only mode for 90 days for trade-history export; after 90 days, data is purged.
