Edgewonk is a browser journal that asks you to fill in a lot by hand: comments, screenshots, the high and low of each trade. TradeRecall takes as much of that as it can from your platform while you trade, and leaves you to say the rest.
Free, no card. Plus a bonus: the full version for your first 30 days.
Futures, forex and CFDs only, on the platforms TradeRecall works with.

With Edgewonk, their pricing page says you can no longer log in to your journal after you cancel. TradeRecall is not a subscription: you buy it once for $300, or pay $33 a month 12 times, and it is yours for good. Your journal is on your computer, and the free journal keeps everything you recorded. Pricing
Psychology is easier to see in what you said during the trade than in a comment picked from a list afterwards.
Not a rating or a tag: what you actually said, mid-trade, kept with the trade as text.
Trailed, widened, pulled to break-even: the journal keeps all of it, with the time of each.
The pictures of your chart are taken in your platform, so the trade already has them.
Yes, by voice. Say the setup you are passing on; TradeRecall offers to keep it as a missed trade, you can add entry, stop, target and size, and every one you confirm is in Reports › Missed Opportunities.
Yes. Reports break your trades down per mistake and per setup: number of trades, win rate and expectancy, for the trades you tagged or confirmed.
Yes, one licence is for 2 computers.
