Tapeboard vs Tradervue — Trading Journal Meets Research Terminal
// Tradervue is a dedicated trading journal. Tapeboard ships a journal plus the full research + scanner + simulator stack — so your entries, chart-study, and trade-idea tracking all live in the same tab instead of being split across tools.
// USE TAPEBOARD if Tapeboard journals + researches + simulates in one place, with AI analysis on your entries.

- // You want journal + research + scanner + sim in one tab; no context-switching between Tradervue, Finviz, TradingView, and your broker.
- // You want AI to read your trade notes and suggest patterns — Tradervue doesn't ship AI analysis.
- // You paper-trade frequently; Tapeboard's simulator logs directly into the journal.
- // You don't have 70+ broker imports to justify (your broker is one of the common ones, or you paper-trade primarily).
- // Commission & fee accounting matters to you on a budget — Tradervue gates commission/fee support to its $49.95 Gold tier; Tapeboard never paywalls it.
- // You want one honest number to track improvement over time — the Tape Score (0-100) grades your record with a published, reproducible methodology.
- // You import from an obscure broker Tradervue supports natively.
- // You want Tradervue-specific analytics (MFE/MAE curves, tag-driven clustering at their depth).
- // You're primarily a journal user and don't need scanner/charts/research in the same tool.
- // You trade commodities / futures / forex and want multi-market journal support.
// Can Tapeboard import trades from Interactive Brokers / TD Ameritrade / etc?
Tapeboard supports CSV import; most brokers export CSV. Tradervue has deeper native integrations for ~70 brokers. If your broker requires a 5-click CSV download vs a 0-click direct import, Tradervue is smoother.
// Is Tapeboard's journal as deep as Tradervue's?
Tradervue's analytics are still category-leading for journal-specific work. Tapeboard's analytics are solid (win rate, profit factor, expectancy, equity curve, by-symbol, by-hold-time) and are paired with live research + scanner — the combination is different from Tradervue's single-purpose depth.
