Haunted vs Tradervue: a fully free journal, compared honestly

Tradervue is one of the longest-running trading journals, with broad broker import and a free plan capped by monthly trade count. Haunted is free without tiers and focuses on manual logging, analytics and prop-firm accounts. Here is an honest comparison, including when Tradervue is the better option.

Price: a capped free plan versus a fully free journal

As of October 2026, Tradervue’s pricing page lists two paid plans, Silver from about $30 per month and Gold from about $50 per month, both with unlimited trade imports. It also has a free Basic plan that you can keep indefinitely, but it limits how many trades you can import each month; Tradervue’s help centre gives the limit as 30 trades per calendar month. Haunted has no plans at all, and every feature described here is included: analytics, prop-firm tracking, ideas, documents, the backtest journal and share links are all free, with no trial and no card required.

When Tradervue is the better choice

Tradervue imports trades from a wide range of brokers and platforms and groups executions into trades automatically, which is a major time saver for active stock and options traders. Haunted has no broker auto-sync and no MetaTrader import, so you either log trades manually or bring them in from CSV or Notion. Tradervue also has a long-established community side, with trade sharing and mentor access built into its plans. If you trade many executions per day on US equities and want imports to run on their own, Tradervue, especially on a paid plan, is likely the better tool for you.

How logging works in Haunted

Every trade in Haunted records outcome, net P/L, R:R and risk, the session and model behind it, tags, notes and screenshots pasted straight from the clipboard. A trade can be split across several accounts, which helps prop traders who run one entry on multiple challenges. The ideas section stores your bias, levels and invalidation before price reaches them, and a played-out idea turns into a trade in one click. Documents hold trading plans and weekly reviews with embedded charts linked to specific trades. The backtests section is a journal for logging tested trades and their equity curve, not a simulator.

Analytics and prop-firm accounts

Haunted grades your trading on a six-dimension scorecard and breaks results down by session, pair, model and account. You see the equity curve, drawdown, expectancy and a calendar heatmap without exporting data elsewhere. Prop-firm and personal accounts are tracked in one place, including challenge phases, drawdown limits, profit targets and payout history across several attempts. Tradervue’s reporting is detailed and grows on paid plans, with features such as exit analysis on Gold. It supports stocks, options, futures and forex, while Haunted is shaped around forex and prop-firm trading, and none of its analytics depend on a plan.

Language, access and switching

Haunted works in a browser on desktop and phone; there is no native mobile app. The interface is available in Russian, Ukrainian and English. Existing trades can be imported from a CSV file or a Notion database. You can share a single trade or the whole journal through a read-only public link with an optional expiry, then revoke it whenever you want, which covers most mentor and group use cases. Once a month Haunted also runs Haunted MOTM, a free prediction tournament with a live leaderboard, for traders who want to test their market calls.
