CircleCastle is a professional trading journal, analytics, and education platform built for futures, forex, and crypto traders who want to turn raw trades into a real edge. We help traders track every trade, spot their leaks, and improve performance with deep analytics, AI-powered coaching, account replication, playbooks, and a powerful mentor and student ecosystem that no other journal on the market offers at this price point. Our platform automatically syncs trades in real time from Tradovate, ProjectX/TopstepX, Bybit, Bitunix, MetaTrader 5, and NinjaTrader, with Rithmic coming soon. For brokers without native integration, we support CSV and HTML imports from TradingView, FX Replay, TraDeSea, MotiveWave, and MetaTrader 4/5 account reports, so every trader can get their full history in, no matter where they trade. What truly sets CircleCastle apart: - AI Trading Coach, an Anthropic-powered engine that analyzes your journal, detects behavioral patterns (revenge trading, tilt, session drift, overtrading), and delivers specific, actionable recommendations based on your own data, not generic advice. - Account Replication, an optional add-on that lets you mirror your own trades across multiple connected accounts in real time, with custom copy ratios and cross-symbol mapping (e.g. NQ to MNQ). Perfect for prop firm traders managing multiple evaluations. - Mentor and Student Area, where trading coaches can invite students, monitor trades, leave annotations, and manage entire teams inside the platform. A native education layer no other journal offers. - Weekly Leaderboard, where you can compete with verified prop firm traders in a transparent, anti-cheat ranking system with real prizes every week. - Backtesting module, which lets you replay the market bar-by-bar using TradingView Advanced Charts, with fullscreen, timeframe switching, and GoToDate. - Risk & Reward Calculator, Economic Calendar, Playbooks with checklists, XP and achievement system, shareable PnL cards, and a built-in community. Priced at just $15/month for the Trader plan and $29/month for the Mentor plan, roughly 60% cheaper than leading alternatives, with a generous Free plan and a 7-day full-access trial on paid plans. Whether you trade NQ futures, FX pairs, or crypto perpetuals, CircleCastle gives you the professional-grade toolkit you actually need at a price that makes sense.

lately I've been starting to use it more and more, and to be honest its extremely clean and new-user friendly.
I will most definitely use using CircleCastle more often in the future.
My experience with CircleCastle has been great as there are many excellent features that are incorporated into one platform such as journaling, auto journaling, trade syncers with multiple platforms, backtesting, leaderboards, trading analytics, playbooks, a mentor & student area and many more. There are step by step guides for every process but if you still require assistance, the friendly staff is always happy to help. The features and platform are great and so I enjoy using CircleCastle.
I’ve been using this for a while now and it’s honestly been a great find. The site pretty much covers everything I need as a trader, so I don’t have to juggle a bunch of different tools anymore.
I’m running multiple prop firm accounts (around 20), and the trade sync feature has been super smooth, no issues there. The backtesting is solid too, which makes it easy to go over strategies and see what actually works.
What I like most is the pricing. It’s way more affordable compared to paying for several different platforms, and it basically does it all in one place. Definitely worth checking out if you’re trying to keep things simple without losing functionality.
simple and easy to use which is perfect for journals and has unique features such as backtesting and and a AI coach.
Great website, It's pretty much a web that works for everything.
I am using multiple accounts from prop firms, up to 20 accounts, and the trade syncer works really well.
The backtesting is really solid as well, it allows me to backtest, and the pricing is amazing, I am saving up a lot of platforms and subscriptions.
I aboslutely recommend it if you need a trading tool for different purposes without having to pay multiple subscriptions.
It's the best platform for recording your trading day. It has many options and improvements that no other platform has. I would definitely recommend it.
Circlecastle the easiest journal website.
Easy understanding, easy to use and support is on top!
Love it
I've been using this platform for backtesting and organizing my strategy, and it's truly helped me improve my discipline as a trader.
What I appreciate most is the ease of creating a clear playbook, where I can define rules, entry conditions, and risk management. This has allowed me to stick to my plan without improvising, which is crucial for my trading with NQ.
I also like that I can simulate real market scenarios, which helps me practice without risking money and better understand my mistakes. The interface is clean and easy to use; it doesn't feel complicated.
As an area for improvement, I'd like to see more advanced order flow analysis tools or more detailed footprint integration.
Overall, it's a very good tool if you want to take trading seriously and improve your consistency.
This platform is honestly 10/10. It has everything that I need: copy trader, journal, backtesting, AI coach, auto sync, mentor area among other features. Support is also top tier, whenever I had an issue they resolved it fast and easy.
I would recommend Circle Castle to anyone that want to step up their trading journey.
Amazing experience overall , everything from journal to backtesting to copy trading
Ive been using circlecastle for a bit and ive got to say, it is amazing.
My mentor had bought a plan and linked it, and ever since then he has been tracking my Winrate, risk reward, pnl (all adjustable in settings)
It has definitely helped me alot in trading, especially with its integration.
