Helping SA traders
become profitable.
TradeJournal exists for one reason — to help South African traders improve their results through better data, honest analysis, and real self-reflection.
Our mission
We're building the platform we wish existed when we started trading.
Most traders fail not because they lack intelligence or dedication, but because they don't learn from their mistakes. They repeat the same errors, let emotions drive decisions, and never truly understand what's working and what's not.
TradeJournal changes that. When you can see your trading clearly — expectancy by setup, drawdown by session, mistake patterns — you can fix what's broken and double down on what actually works.
No gimmicks, no false promises. Just powerful analytics and honest feedback about your trading performance.

What we stand for
Principles that drive every decision.
These values guide every feature we build and every decision we make.
Data Over Emotion
Every feature is built to help you make decisions based on statistics, not gut feel. Your edge lives in the data.
Built for SA Traders
South African traders face unique challenges: ZAR pairs, JSE timing, SARB events. We built around those realities.
Accessible Pricing
Institutional-grade analytics shouldn't cost institutional rates. Pro tools in ZAR, no USD conversion tax.
Radical Transparency
No hidden fees, no dark patterns, no invented metrics. Honest about what we are, what we're building, and where we're going.
Your Data is Yours
Your trade history is private and encrypted. We don't share it, sell it, or use it for advertising. Ever.
Continuous Improvement
The platform improves with every cohort of traders. Regular updates driven by real user feedback.
