Changelog
New features, improvements, and fixes as they ship.
- Improved
Share links: no AI output, and a clearer privacy policy
The downloadable image card for a shared trade carried your AI setup grade. It no longer publishes any AI output — not the grade, the critique, detected patterns or price levels. The privacy policy now also states exactly what a share link makes public, which companies process your data and what each one receives, including the AI provider that sees your chart captures.
- Improved
Trades show where they actually came from
A trade imported from a broker CSV was labelled "Broker", the same as a live sync — so an uploaded file looked like a connected brokerage. Each trade now names its real origin, such as "Webull CSV" or "Thinkorswim statement", on the trade and in CSV exports.
- Fixed
Automatic broker sync works during the trial
Accounts inside the 7-day trial could connect a brokerage and pull trades manually, but the scheduled sync silently skipped them for the whole trial. It now runs for trial accounts as it does for Pro.
- Fixed
A network hiccup no longer reports you as a free user
If the check for your plan failed — a dropped connection, a slow response — the app resolved it to "free", removing the Pro badge and showing upgrade prompts to paying subscribers. A failed check is now treated as unknown rather than as free.
- Fixed
The position calculator no longer carries between accounts
On a shared browser, the position-size calculator kept the previous account's inputs — account size and risk percentage — and showed them to the next person who signed in. Its saved values are now scoped per account.
- Fixed
AI grading explains why it declined
When grading was refused — no chart, allowance exhausted, image too large — the app failed silently. Every refusal now carries a reason and says it plainly.
- Fixed
Deleting a trade now unpublishes its share link
A share link kept serving a trade after that trade or its chart had been deleted. Deleting either now stops the public page and its image card immediately.
- Fixed
AI grades stay attached to the chart they describe
A grade written about one chart could end up displayed against a later capture. Grades now stay bound to the image they were written about, and the chart-reading actions no longer appear on a trade with no chart.
- Fixed
Real error messages instead of an empty page
When the app could not load your trades, playbooks or journal entries, five screens showed the first-run empty state — indistinguishable from having no data. They now say something went wrong. The top bar also stops overflowing at 375px.
- Fixed
Every free calculator audited for correctness
All twelve calculators were checked against hand-worked figures. Ten defect classes were fixed — including a risk-of-ruin simulation that understated ruin roughly threefold, and a pip-value default that returned a figure 150x too high on the JPY tab. Both could have led someone to size a position wrongly.
- Fixed
Pricing and free-tier claims corrected across the site
Several marketing pages described the free tier, the trade limit and Pro grading in ways that did not match the product. Every claim was re-checked against what the app actually does and corrected.
- Improved
Readable colour in light mode, and for colourblind readers
Chart and P&L colours failed contrast in light mode and were hard to separate for colourblind readers. Both are fixed across all six themes, and the command palette now traps and restores keyboard focus properly.
- Fixed
Password reset and email confirmation repaired
Reset links could be consumed by an email scanner before you clicked them, dead links had nowhere to land, and the sign-up screen told you to confirm an email that was never sent. All three are fixed.
- New
Attach a chart while you log the trade
You can now attach a chart capture at the moment you log a trade, rather than logging first and linking afterwards. Imports link whatever they can match on their own, and captures from the browser extension link too.
- Fixed
Free AI grades: one budget, and the limits are stated
The free grade allowance used to be enforced by two separate counters that disagreed, and hitting the limit produced a silent failure. There is now one shared budget, and the app tells you what the limit is and where you are against it.
- Fixed
Trial accounts can use AI grading
Accounts inside the 7-day trial were being refused AI grading despite having Pro — the grading paths did not recognise the trial. They do now.
- New
7-day reverse trial — full Pro when you sign up
Every new account now gets full Pro for its first seven days, with no card and nothing to activate. When the week ends you drop to the free plan automatically; nothing you created is locked away or deleted.
- New
Deleted trades and charts are kept for 30 days
Deleting a trade or a chart capture no longer removes it immediately — it is retained for 30 days before permanent deletion. There is no self-serve restore yet, so if you delete something by mistake, email support within that window and it can be brought back.
- Fixed
Google sign-in failures now show a reason
A failed Google sign-in used to leave you on the login screen with nothing to go on — the error was recorded, but the message never reached the screen. It now appears as a banner telling you what went wrong.
- Fixed
Mobile: the homepage, calendar and nav all work again
Below-the-fold content on the homepage was invisible on some mobile browsers, calendar day cells swallowed taps, and there was no nav menu on small screens. All three are fixed, and tap targets across the app were raised to a comfortable size.
- Fixed
Calculator fixes — empty states and focus
The position-size calculator now explains itself before you enter anything instead of showing a bare zero, and tapping a number field selects its contents so you can type straight over it.
- Improved
Live market data removed — ChartRecap is capture-first
The multi-chart terminal, live candles, watchlists, bar-by-bar replay, price alerts and the Exit-Efficiency report have all been removed, along with every third-party market-data feed behind them. The reason is licensing: those feeds are not licensed for redistribution in a product like this one. What ChartRecap does now is the part that was always the point — you capture the chart you traded, and your journal is built around that image. Nothing you captured or imported was affected.
- Improved
Pro is now $9/month or $89/year
Pro pricing drops from $19/month and $179/year to $9/month and $89/year. Existing plans move to the new price automatically — nothing to do.
- New
Terminal skins — 6 visual themes
Pick your trading environment in Settings → Appearance. Six themes ship today: ChartRecap (default), After Hours, Ledger, Bull, Paper, and Ember — each adjusting colors and feel without touching layout or data.
- New
AI chart-levels — support/resistance chips (Pro)
A new AI action on any journal snapshot reads the support, resistance, and breakout levels directly off your chart and renders them as labelled price chips on the journal card. One click to run; results appear inline.
- New
Journal v2
The journal page is rebuilt from scratch: a cleaner capture hero, faster snap-to-trade linking, a streamlined log-trade form, and a linked-P&L chip that stays visible in the trade row.
- New
Telegram price alerts
Connect Telegram in one click and get price alerts there, even when ChartRecap is closed. (Pro) Retracted 2026-08-08: this feature was removed in the 2026-07-02 pivot on personal-use licensing grounds for third-party market data. It will not return.
- New
Delete your account & data anytime
Permanently delete your account and all your data yourself, from Settings → Delete account.
- Fixed
Reliable MT4/MT5 re-imports
Re-importing your MetaTrader statement no longer creates duplicate trades or doubled P&L — imports dedupe by the broker's own ticket.

Retracted 2026-08-18: the Exit-Efficiency report was removed in the 2026-07-02 pivot, along with the market data it depended on. It will not return. The Analytics/Reports split described above still stands.
