Coinbase stays the venue. Pro Trading Journal does not place orders and does not custody funds. Starter includes 1 spot exchange connection with manual sync and 50 new trades each calendar month. Pro adds automatic spot and supported futures sync across up to 10 exchange connections, on the same plan that covers every market.
No. The Coinbase connection is read-only. Order placement and withdrawal permissions stay off, and there is no wallet connection.
The history that read-only key can see for the products you enable. Regulated exchange with Advanced Trade CDP API keys.
Starter stays free. It includes 50 new trades each month and 1 exchange, synced by hand. No card.
Pro is $24 a month or $199 a year, prepaid in USDC on Solana. Nothing renews on its own, so there is nothing to cancel. A 7-day refund goes to an address you confirm, not back to the sending address. Pro syncs all 10 supported exchanges automatically.
