Free vs Pro: what's included
What the Free plan covers, what Ink Pro adds, the 3-day Pro trial, archiving accounts, and what happens if you go back to Free.
You can use Ink for free for as long as you like. Free is your whole record — every trade, your full history in Stats, the fee tracker. Ink Pro goes further and deeper.

Archiving an account
Any account can be archived — on Free and Pro. An archived account keeps every trade, cost and payout, stays in your Stats and Journal, and takes no new trades. Archive one from its ⋯ menu; a blown account also shows Archive & start a new account.
Free has 1 active account and any number of archived ones. To add a second active account, archive the first — or get Pro. Un-archive needs a free active slot.
The 3-day Pro trial
Every new account starts on Ink Pro for 3 days, no card needed. Settings → Account shows Pro trial · until the date it ends, we email you the day before, and on the last day a chip at the top of the app reads Your Pro trial ends today. Subscribe any time during the trial and Pro carries on with no gap. If you don't, you're on Free when it ends and the rules under Going back to Free apply: nothing is deleted. There's one trial per person.
Upgrading
Upgrade from Settings — pick Monthly or Annual. Payment is handled by Paddle. See Subscription & billing for managing or cancelling.
Going back to Free
If your subscription or your trial ends, nothing is deleted:
- Extra accounts and strategies become read-only. You keep one active account and one active strategy; you can still view, edit and delete the others, but new trades can't go on a read-only account. You can archive the extra accounts instead.
- Every trade stays. Free has no trade limit — keep logging and importing into your active account.
- Stats keep your full history — the Pro sections (edge finder, avg hold, when you trade, R per trade, discipline) show blurred, with a Pro card; Compare, Insights and Tags carry a lock.
- You said / Market did lines you wrote stay on each day, read-only.
- Trade images and day screenshots stay. A trade or a day with more than 3 keeps them all; you just can't add another to it.
- Goals past your oldest 3 active become read-only. They keep tracking and you can delete them, but not edit or count them.
