Is Tradytics legit?
By Faizan Ahmad. Updated .
Yes. Tradytics has been running since 2020 and shows real market data: options trades from OPRA, the consolidated tape of every US options exchange, and dark pool prints reported to FINRA. Its old site did draw real complaints: cancelling was hard, some people said they were charged after cancelling, a $15 trial rolled into a monthly fee, and the iOS app went years without an update. The 2026 app changed those things: you cancel yourself anytime in Plan and billing and keep access to the end of the period you paid for, there is no trial (a free plan instead), and the app runs in the browser on desktop and phone.
What did people complain about with Tradytics?
Here are the complaints that came up about the old site, mostly on review sites between 2021 and 2025, and what the 2026 app does about each one.
| Old complaint | What the 2026 app does |
|---|---|
| Cancelling was hard | You cancel yourself, anytime, in Plan and billing in the profile menu. Monthly plans have no contract. |
| Charged after cancelling | Cancelling ends the plan at the close of the period you already paid for, and you keep access until then. |
| A $15 trial followed by a monthly fee | The $15 trial is gone. There is no trial at all; the Free plan costs $0, needs no card and doesn't expire. |
| An iOS app not updated in years | The 2026 app is a web app that runs in the browser on desktop and phone. |
| Too many tools, too much information | One app, plus an AI analyst that pulls the data for you and gives one plain answer. |
The old site also had fans. Traders praised its Discord bots and the depth of its data. The 2026 app keeps the data depth and puts it in one place.
Is Tradytics data real?
Yes, and you can check it against what you see elsewhere. On October 30, 2026, Tradytics logged 73,896 large options prints across the market, $11.84B in calls and $12.72B in puts. The biggest single print was an SPX December 18 12000 put: 1,000 contracts, $438.98M in premium, at 3:26 PM ET.
A good sign of an honest data tool is that it tells you what its data can't do. Dark pool prints are after-the-fact reports, and Tradytics says so: it shows them within about 15 minutes of their report. On the same day, a $2.84B SPY print reported at 4:28 PM ET at the prior day's price was a late, previously agreed trade, not a fresh bet. More in where Tradytics gets its data and what a late dark pool print is.
How does billing work now?
Plans are billed through Stripe, and there are three: Free ($0), Live ($39 a month or $299 a year) and Pro ($69 a month or $499 a year). You cancel or change plans yourself in Plan and billing. A plan change starts right away, and what's left of your current period comes off the new price. Full details: How much does Tradytics cost? and how to cancel.
What Tradytics doesn't do
- It doesn't place trades. Broker linking is read only: it reads holdings and trades to track your portfolio.
- It doesn't promise returns. AI trade ideas are tracked until they close, with their full record.
- It doesn't claim flow is a sure signal. A big print can be a hedge, a spread or a closing trade; the AI analyst points this out, for example flagging a $114M NVDA put print as a mid-price spread rather than a clean bet. See does following unusual options activity work?
How can you check for yourself?
Use the Free plan. It costs nothing, needs no card and shows every page and tool on yesterday's session, so you can compare its numbers with your broker's before you pay anything. For questions, email [email protected], ask in the Discord, or watch the video tutorials on YouTube.
Common questions
Is Tradytics a scam?
No. It is a working app with real OPRA and FINRA-reported data, self-serve cancelling and a free plan. Past complaints were about billing on the old site, and the 2026 app changed how billing works.
Is it safe to link my brokerage account?
The link is read only. Tradytics reads your stocks, options, crypto, cash and trades to build the portfolio pages; it can't trade for you.
Will Tradytics charge me after I cancel?
Cancelling ends your plan at the end of the period you already paid for. You keep access until then.
Does Tradytics still have a free trial?
No. The old $15 trial is gone, and there is no trial now. The Free plan is how you try it.
How long has Tradytics been around?
Since 2020. The blog's first posts are from November 2020.
