It excels at recording trades, tagging them, generating reports, and providing standard performance metrics. **TraderDynamiq** is a **behavioral analytics platform**. Its core focus is finding repeated behavioral patterns that cost you money, ranking them by dollar impact, and tracking whether your discipline actually improves over time. Both import trades. Both show P&L. The difference is in what happens after the data is in. TraderSync asks: "How did your trades perform?" TraderDynamiq asks: "What behavioral patterns are costing you money, and are you fixing them?" ## Feature Comparison ### Trade Import | Feature | TraderDynamiq | TraderSync | |---------|--------------|------------| | Supported brokers | 67+ (auto-detect) | 900+ (many via generic CSV) | | Auto-format detection | ✅ YAML-based engine | ❌ Manual broker selection | | API sync | Binance, Bybit, OKX, Alpaca, OANDA + 7 more | Select brokers | | CSV/XLSX upload | ✅ | ✅ | | Deduplication | ✅ Automatic via hash | Varies | TraderSync has more broker names in their list, but many are covered by generic CSV.
