Crux vs Tradervue
An honest comparison, checked against Tradervue’s own pricing page on 19 September 2026.
When is Tradervue the better choice?
Tradervue is the long-established journal for reviewing trades on the chart. Its Gold plan has over 100 reports and exit analysis, and there is a community for sharing trades. If chart-by-chart review and sharing are what you want, it does them well.
When is Crux the better choice?
Crux is newer and narrower. Instead of more reports, it answers what to change. It shows the dollar value of following your own rules and the habits costing you money. It tracks prop firm evaluations with alerts before a limit, and sends a weekly review with one thing to fix. It costs $9.99 to $29.99 a month against $29.95 to $49.95.
