What GlanWick offers
What does the trading journal cost? Nothing.
Unlimited and free forever, no credit card, no trade limit. Log every position, without a cap. To be clear: the journal is what's free. AI and advanced analytics run on credits and paid plans.

How does the AI trading mentor help me?
It tracks your real positions live and checks every trading idea against market news, key levels and current market conditions before real money is on the line. It never tells you what to buy. The AI runs on credits, the journal stays free.

Does GlanWick detect bad habits?
Yes. The psychology analysis detects overtrading while it happens and warns you before it costs money. The proactive live warnings are part of the Pro plans.
Can I test risk-free? Yes.
In the trading simulator you trade under real market conditions: 0.4% fee and 0.01 to 0.05% slippage per order, PnL always net. Currently on crypto markets, as a prop firm challenge if you want. The journal and its analytics still cover all seven asset classes.

Do I keep my asset in view?
Pick your asset and automatically get a news feed and economic calendar filtered to what actually moves your positions. Plus the market overview at a glance.
Why did a trade work out, or not?
Every trade lands in the journal automatically and gets linked to the market event that was running at the time of the order. So you see the connection between market conditions and your decision, not just the bare result.
Where Edgewonk scores
Edgewonk has been around since 2015 and its tag and notes system is deeply established. Many traders have built their entire workflow around exactly that analysis. If that matters most to you, Edgewonk remains a solid choice.
Which is better for whom?
- GlanWick, if: you want everything in one place, need a free unlimited journal without a trade limit, want an AI double-checking your open positions, or want to simulate risk-free on crypto markets.
- Edgewonk, if: the established tag and notes system matters most to you and you need neither an AI mentor nor simulation.
