Where the others offer more
- TradeZella lists 500+ broker and prop firm integrations with auto-sync, automated AI backtests, AI agents and a trading community with Zella University. ICC Zillas syncs MetaTrader 4 / 5 and imports reports and CSV files from other platforms, and its coach is rule-based, not a chat AI.
- Tradervue has a free plan you can keep using (30 imported trades a month) and broker sync for its supported brokers. ICC Zillas has a free trial, and after it your data stays readable with manual imports on one account.
- Edgewonk is one yearly price for every feature, with a 14-day money-back guarantee and automated imports from many brokers. ICC Zillas refunds within 7 days.
- Trade replay in ICC Zillas uses free market data for forex, metals, indices and crypto; single stocks are not covered.
Where ICC Zillas is different
- Lower entry price: Essential is $19 a month and Pro, with replay, backtesting and the prop firm tracker, is $35.
- A real trial: 21 days with every tool, no card, and no plan renews by itself.
- MetaTrader sync without a password: the read-only Sync EA uses a private token you make in the app.
- Your data stays yours: when a plan ends, every trade, note and report stays in your account and readable.
- Prop firm rules and money in one place: daily loss, static or trailing drawdown, targets and days, plus every challenge fee and payout.
Card payments are not available yet: plans are paid by local transfer or crypto and confirmed by hand. See all features in the guide, or try the free trading journal app for 21 days.
Import an MT5 report or attach the Sync EA and see your own numbers. No card needed.

Questions
Is ICC Zillas free?
There is a 21-day free trial with every tool and no card. After it, without a plan, every trade, note and report stays readable and you can still import files or add trades on one account; auto-sync, replay, backtesting, the prop firm tracker, the coach and mentor spaces need a plan from $19 a month.
Can I move my trades from TradeZella or Tradervue?
Yes, if you can export your trades as a CSV file or upload your MetaTrader report. ICC Zillas recognises CSV columns by their names, and the same trade is never imported twice.
Does ICC Zillas need my MetaTrader password?
No. The Sync EA runs inside your MetaTrader and sends trades with a private sync token. It only reads your account and never places, changes or closes a trade.
Is this comparison sponsored?
No. It was written by the ICC Zillas team from the competitors' official pages, checked on 20 October 2026, with links to each source.
