Most serious investors end up with a stack: one site for charts, another for screening, another for dividends, another for options, and something else for backtesting and signals. Each one is "only" $25 to $60 a month. Together they run about $2,500 a year. The revamped TruCharts puts all of it in one tab for about the price of one of those tools, and at today's offer, for less than any of them.
Standard $12/mo $25 · Premium $20/mo $39, billed annually. Lock it in before October 31.
What the subscription stack really costs
Here is what you would pay if you bought each capability from a well-known specialist. We used each company's own published price (or a dated review where the company does not publish one) and the cheapest plan that covers the job.
| What you need | Popular tool | Their price | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Charts, multi-chart layouts, alerts | TradingView Plus | $29.95/mo billed annually | $359 |
| Stock screener with alerts | Finviz Elite | $299.50/yr | $300 |
| Fundamentals, ratings, earnings research | Seeking Alpha Premium | $299/yr | $299 |
| Dividend safety scores and income tracking | Simply Safe Dividends | $468/yr | $468 |
| Strategy backtesting and automated trading | TrendSpider Standard | from $59/mo | $708 |
| Options strategy builder and probabilities | OptionStrat Live Tools | $29.99/mo | $360 |
| Total for the stack | ≈ $2,494 | ||
| TruCharts Premium (all of the above in one place) | $468 | ||
Prices checked October 8, 2026 from each provider's pricing page; Seeking Alpha from a July 2026 published review. Competitor plans differ in depth and data (several offer real-time data and features TruCharts does not), so this compares the cost of covering each need, not identical products. At list price, Premium is about 5× cheaper than the stack. During the launch offer (through October 31, 2026) Premium is $20/mo billed annually ($240 a year) and Standard is $12/mo.
Everything you get, feature by feature
1. Nightly scans and TC buy/sell signals ONLY ON TRUCHARTS
Every night after the close, TruCharts runs every US listing through 65 scans: MACD crossovers, new highs, RSI turns, candlestick patterns and trend changes. On top of that sit our own strategies: TC Fast Trade for swings, TC Positional for longer holds and TC Premium, our most selective. Each signal is drawn right on the chart, with the move since it fired.
2. Options screener with ready-made strategies NEW
Many options sites show you a chain and leave the math to you. The new TruCharts options screener finds the actual trade. Pick a strategy and it scans the market, prices every position at the bid and ask, and ranks the results.
- 10 strategy presets: covered calls, cash-secured puts, high-probability put spreads, iron condors outside the expected move, earnings straddles, poor man's covered calls, bullish debit spreads, long calls, bearish put spreads and zero-cost collars.
- Every number you need on one row: credit or debit, max profit, max loss, return, annualized return, probability of profit, IV rank, earnings date and a liquidity score.
- Option chain with Greeks, IV rank, expected move and max pain, plus an unusual options activity feed.
3. Charts, multi-chart layouts and backtesting
Interactive charts with 100+ indicators, drawing tools and 35+ years of daily history. Put a whole watchlist on one screen with synced multi-chart layouts, a perfect second-monitor view. Before you risk money on a rule, backtest it with entry, exit and stop rules and read the results trade by trade.
Open multi-charts →4. Stock and crypto screeners
Filter 13,000+ stocks on fundamentals and technicals together: valuation, margins, growth, dividends, indicators, price and volume. Save a screen and re-run it every morning. The same discipline applies to crypto, with a 1,900+ coin screener for momentum, RSI, volatility, turnover and drawdown, with no second subscription.
Build a screen in 60 seconds →5. A research analyst that reads the numbers for you
Tell it how long you invest for. The fundamental analyst ranks every company in the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100 and Dow on profitability, growth, valuation and risk, then explains each placing in plain English, with the case for and against. Go deeper with 41 years of financial statements and Piotroski F-Score and Altman Z-Score health checks.
Run the analyst →6. Earnings and dividend research
See who reports when, what the market expects and how reliably each company beats. For income investors: yield, dividend growth, payout safety scores, every ex-dividend date and a DRIP income projector. That is the core of a dividend-only service that costs $468 a year by itself.
Research your income →7. Your 60-second market check
A market dashboard with breadth and a single Market Pulse score, an S&P 500 heatmap, a market calendar with economic releases, earnings, dividends and splits, and a news feed where every headline is scored positive, negative or neutral and tagged by ticker.
Check the market →8. Alerts, AutoTrade and portfolio tracking
Get an email the moment a price, volume, indicator or strategy-signal condition is met. Connect your Tradier brokerage account to trade from the chart and use AutoTrade so signals can place orders for you. Then track every holding with live value, day move and total profit in the free portfolio tracker.

What TruCharts is not (yet)
We would rather you choose us with clear eyes:
- Not a real-time terminal. Quotes are delayed and scans run after each US close. If you scalp intraday, keep a real-time feed alongside us.
- Advanced backtesting is coming soon. Today's backtester is built for testing a rule on a symbol, not for portfolio-level optimization.
- No live options flow. The unusual-activity feed is great for ideas, but it is not a tick-by-tick flow service.
For the investor who plans trades before the open, researches what they own and wants signals and options ideas without five logins, TruCharts covers the whole workflow.
Get started in five minutes
- Start the free trial and open the market dashboard. Read the Market Pulse score and tonight's TC Fast Trade matches.
- Open one signal on the chart. Look at where it fired and what has happened since, then set an alert on it.
- Run one options preset on a stock you already own, like weekly covered calls, and see what that position could earn.
By the end of the trial you will know, with your own stocks and your own numbers, whether TruCharts earns its place in your morning.
One tab. One subscription. Every signal.
Replace your stack with TruCharts and keep the difference. The launch price of about half off ends October 31, 2026.
TruCharts signals, scans, scores and option probabilities are research tools, not recommendations, and nothing in this article is investment advice. Option probabilities come from a lognormal model at each option's implied volatility and are not predictions. Options involve risk and are not suitable for every investor. Past signal performance does not guarantee future results. Competitor prices were taken from public pricing pages on October 8, 2026 and may change; product names belong to their owners.
