About

Built by traders.
For traders who treat it like a business.

Tradevada is the trading journal we wish existed when we started running the wheel — a real workspace for retail options traders who want to see their edge, not just their fills.

Most "trading journals" are glorified spreadsheets with a coat of paint. They were built for day-traders flipping equities and shoehorned to fit options. We started Tradevada because the wheel deserved better.

The problem we got tired of

Every options trader running cash-secured puts and covered calls eventually hits the same wall: your "true" cost basis stops matching what your broker tells you. Premium collected on a CSP that gets assigned changes your effective entry. A covered call you roll forward shifts your breakeven again. After a few cycles, your spreadsheet is a mess and your broker's P&L view is lying to you.

So we built the tool we wanted. Cycle-aware accounting, true breakeven projection, a wheel-strategy view that tracks every premium you've ever collected against the underlying — and analytics that finally tell you if your strategy actually works.

Trade data we sell · ever

We're a small, focused team based in Texas. We build for ourselves first — because if Tradevada doesn't earn a permanent slot in our morning routine, it doesn't earn yours either.

What we believe

Your trades are yours.

We don't sell trade data. We don't share it with brokers, advertisers, or anyone else. It's encrypted at rest, exportable in one click, and deletable on demand.

No upsells. No tiers we hide behind.

One product, two billing options. Every feature is included in both. You won't get squeezed for "Pro+" pricing the moment you start improving.

Latency matters. So does polish.

You're checking this thing five times a day. We treat every animation, every keystroke, and every page-load like it has to earn its place. No bloat. No spinner soup.

Honest copy. Honest pricing.

If a feature requires a card up front, we say so. If a number is computed (not measured), we mark it. No "free forever" disguises and no quiet pricing creep.

Who Tradevada is for

If you're running cash-secured puts on tickers under $30, selling covered calls on assigned shares, or actively rolling the wheel — Tradevada was built for you. Day-traders, scalpers, and futures specialists may find some of the analytics useful, but the wheel is our north star.

If you're brand new to options, Tradevada is also a great way to understand what your strategy is actually doing. The next-move simulator, true-breakeven projection, and profit-projection ladder turn opaque math into something you can poke at and learn from.

Brad — Founder, Tradevada

Building from Texas · 2026

"I started running the wheel on a small account in 2022. By trade #40 my spreadsheet was unrecognizable, my breakeven was wrong, and my broker's P&L was telling me I was profitable when I was actually breaking even. Tradevada is the tool I wish I had then. We're keeping it small, opinionated, and built for traders who care about their edge."
