The price maths, plainly
TradeZella Essential is $288/year; Premium is $399/year. At current exchange rates that's roughly £215–£300 every year. Exhibit A is £190 a year, everything included. Over three years that is £570 against a TradeZella bill of roughly £645–£900 — and you pay in pounds, so no foreign-transaction fee and no exchange-rate drift.
The real difference: what each product is for
TradeZella is built to be everything for every trader — stocks, options, futures, backtesting, replay, courses, mentor sharing. That breadth is impressive, and you pay for all of it whether you use it or not.
Exhibit A is deliberately narrower: FX traders who want their entire daily process in one interface. Journal in pips and lots. See what hesitation actually costs you — our missed-trades module treats the trades you didn't take as first-class data with its own analytics, not a checkbox inside a playbook. Size the next position from your live balance with the built-in position size calculator (there's a free version at that link — no signup). Check the economic calendar before London open. Get AI coaching on the lot. That's the whole product, and it's why it costs less.
Where TradeZella wins, honestly
- Broker auto-sync. 500+ integrations vs our spreadsheet import. Ours takes about two minutes and matches columns automatically, but sync is sync — if manual import is a dealbreaker, that's a fair reason to pay more.
- Backtesting and replay. We don't do either. TradeZella's backtesting is genuinely good.
- Multi-asset coverage. If you trade options or futures alongside FX, TradeZella handles them natively.
- Education and community. Zella University and their community are large and active.
Where Exhibit A wins
- Price — £19/mo with everything included, against $29–$49/mo split across three tiers where the features you want sit in the dearer ones.
- Missed-trade analytics — a dedicated journal and cost analysis for the trades you hesitated on. For most struggling traders the money left on the table dwarfs the money lost on bad trades, and almost nobody measures it.
- FX-native workflow — no configuring around stocks-first assumptions; pips, lots and pairs are the default everywhere.
- Built-in position sizing from your live balance — not a separate web calculator you re-type numbers into.
- GBP pricing and UK consumer protections — 14-day cancellation rights, and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Switching is a spreadsheet away
Export your history to CSV (from TradeZella, Google Sheets, Excel or anywhere else), drop it into Exhibit A's import, and the column matcher does the rest — day-first dates and formatted numbers included. Two minutes, and your full trading record carries over.
FAQ
Is there a cheaper alternative to TradeZella?
Exhibit A is £19 a month or £190 a year with every feature in one plan, and a 14-day free trial. TradeZella runs $29–$49/month ($288–$399/year, ~£215–£300) across three tiers.
Does Exhibit A have backtesting?
No. If backtesting is central to your process, TradeZella is the better choice — we'd rather you pick the right tool than churn out of ours.
Can I use Exhibit A alongside TradeZella?
Some traders do exactly that: TradeZella for backtesting, Exhibit A for the daily trading journal, missed trades and position sizing. The 14-day trial makes the comparison cost nothing.
Does Exhibit A support auto-sync with my broker?
Not yet — import is via spreadsheet and takes about two minutes. Broker sync is on the roadmap but we won't promise dates we can't keep.
