Switch from Tradervue to Vigil

Tradervue is one of the original trade journaling platforms, known for its execution-level tracking, shared trade community, and detailed reports. CSV export is available on Silver and Gold plans.

Why Traders Switch from Tradervue

Tradervue is a solid trade journal, but most journals share the same fundamental limitation: they store your trades and show you charts, but they do not tell you what to change. You can see that Tuesday was a losing day, but not why. You can see your win rate dropped, but not which specific behavior caused it.

Vigil takes a different approach. Instead of being a passive log, it runs an AI-powered audit against your trading data. The audit identifies concrete patterns -- revenge trading after losses, oversizing on specific instruments, holding losers too long on Fridays, violating your prop firm drawdown rules during the London session. These are the kind of insights that actually change your P&L.

If you are trading a prop firm account, Vigil also monitors your trades against the firm's specific rules (daily loss limits, max drawdown, consistency requirements) and warns you before you breach. No other trade journal does this.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I migrate from Tradervue to Vigil?

Export your trades from Tradervue as CSV (Silver/Gold plans only), then upload the file to Vigil's import page. Vigil automatically detects the Tradervue format, maps all columns, and normalizes your trades. The entire process takes under two minutes.

Will I lose any data switching from Tradervue?

No. Vigil imports all trade data that Tradervue exports including symbols, direction, entry/exit prices, quantities, and P&L. Some Tradervue-specific fields like custom tags or notes may not transfer, but all core trade data is preserved.

Is Vigil free to use after switching from Tradervue?

Vigil offers a free tier that includes trade importing, basic analytics, and AI audits. You can import your full Tradervue history at no cost and start getting insights immediately.

What does Vigil do that Tradervue does not?

The core difference is AI-powered trade auditing. While Tradervue stores and displays your trades, Vigil runs a structured analysis that identifies behavioral patterns, rule violations, drawdown risks, and consistency issues. It is built specifically for prop firm traders who need to understand why they are losing money, not just how much.
