Pricing questions
Is StockSetups free?
Yes — there's a permanently free tier. It gives you the top 3 of every lane with the full, unredacted dossier and trade plan on each, plus a 15-minute-delayed Live Tape and Top List. Pro unlocks the rest of every lane, the real-time alert engine, and the full workspace.
How does the 7-day free trial work?
Every new account gets one 7-day free trial, no credit card, with full Pro access — the whole board, the real-time alert engine, the multi-window workspace and the complete dossier. No credit card is needed: the trial starts when you sign up and drops to the free plan when it ends, unless you add a card to keep Pro at $29/month. Nothing is charged without a card.
What's the difference between Free and Pro?
Free limits which symbols you see, not how deep the data goes — every free symbol gets the complete dossier. Pro unlocks every signal in all four lanes, real-time intraday alerts (no 15-minute delay), the full screener and workspace, daily Picks, unlimited watchlists and price alerts, and the email digest. Free keeps a 20-symbol watchlist and 3 price alerts (in-app + browser push).
Are there extra exchange data fees for real-time?
No. Many real-time platforms charge live exchange data as a monthly add-on and require exchange subscriber agreements before it switches on. StockSetups' real-time alerts run on a fully licensed sampled tape, so they're included in Pro — nothing extra to pay or sign. Prices are real trade prints and ratio-based volume alerts are unaffected by the sampling; see the FAQ for how volume is calibrated.
Are there any add-on fees on top of the Pro price?
No. Pro is one plan at $29/month or $264/year, and it includes real-time data, every alert type, webhook delivery, custom alert rules, unlimited price alerts and the email digest. There are no exchange data fees, no exchange subscriber agreements, no alert packs and no higher tier to unlock a feature.
How does StockSetups compare on price to Trade Ideas, TrendSpider, Finviz Elite or Benzinga Pro?
StockSetups Pro is $29/month flat (about $22/month billed yearly) with real-time data and all 35+ alert types included. By approximate list price: Trade Ideas (≈ $127–254/mo), TrendSpider ($82–321/mo), Finviz (free; Elite ≈ $39.50/mo) and Benzinga Pro (≈ $37–197/mo) — prices change, and each comparison page shows the date it was checked. Each of those tools goes deeper in its own niche; every comparison says where the rival is the better pick.
Can I save by paying yearly?
Yes. Pro is $29/month, or $264 per year — that's $22/month, 24% off. The trial always starts monthly; switch to yearly from your account to lock in the lower rate.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes — cancel online from your account in a few clicks, no email or phone call required. You keep Pro through the end of the period you've paid for, then drop to the free daily preview.
Do you offer refunds?
Paid periods are generally non-refundable, which is why the 7-day trial takes no card. A billing error, such as a duplicate charge or a renewal after you cancelled, is always put right, and other refunds are case by case: email support with the charge date. The full terms are on the refund policy page.
