Where Sweep is different

Sweep starts from your prop accounts. Pick your firm and account type, and the drawdown, consistency and payout conditions are already there. They’re checked against each firm’s official pages every week; when a firm changes a rule, you’re notified and choose whether to apply it.

Your money stays in separate layers: evaluations, funded and live accounts are never mixed, and copy trading counts once in your statistics, not once per account.

Each session has a routine: a plan before the open, your rules during it, and a short review after the close. Sweep measures those habits, so a red day where you followed your plan still counts.

Where TradeZella is ahead

TradeZella is a larger, all-round journal. It syncs trades automatically from many brokers, replays your trades second by second, and includes backtesting on historical data. It covers stocks, forex and crypto as well as futures, and offers a mentor mode. If you rely on any of these today, it’s the better fit.

At Sweep, automatic sync with Rithmic and Tradovate is in development; we’ll announce it on our changelog as soon as it’s live.
