TrendSpider automates the charting brilliantly.
We make the daily call — and show where it would be wrong.
TrendSpider has the best automated technical analysis in retail: auto trendlines, multi-timeframe analysis, and genuinely powerful strategy backtesting. It's a superb tool for building and testing your own system. The trade-off: it hands you the charts and the tools, but you still make and own every call — and it's on you to decide when it has failed. Entry Point Trading does the opposite: an opinionated daily call across the whole US large-cap universe, the reasoning shown, and the level where each call would be wrong stated up front. We make no return or win-rate claims.
What TrendSpider actually does better than everyone
TrendSpider is, flatly, the best automated technical-analysis and backtesting platform in retail — and for a trader who wants to build and test their own system it is a superb tool. Credit where it's due, here's what it does brilliantly and where the honest limit is.
Where TrendSpider wins
- Best-in-class automated trendlines and multi-timeframe analysis
- Genuinely powerful, no-code strategy backtesting
- Dynamic price alerts and raindrop/volume charting
- Great for building, testing and refining your own system
- Deep charting across stocks, ETFs, crypto and futures
Where the build-your-own-system model has a limit
- It automates the charts — not the decision for you
- You still design, test and own every call yourself
- Backtests are historical; the live call is yours to judge
- Powerful but has a real learning curve to master
- No opinionated daily read — the tool stays neutral
If you want to build and backtest your own system, TrendSpider is a genuinely great tool — and we'll say so plainly. Plenty of EPT readers chart and test their ideas there too.
Automated charting you drive vs a reasoned daily call
The real question isn't "which platform charts better?" — it's "who actually makes a call, and does anyone tell me where it would be wrong?" Here's the difference across the dimensions that matter once you're trading real money. Note what's not in this table: any win-rate or return claim. We don't make them.
| Dimension | TrendSpider | Entry Point Trading |
|---|---|---|
| Core output | Automated charts, alerts and backtests — you decide | Opinionated daily call + Power Rankings + macro/options context, done for you |
| Who makes the decision | You do, from the tools and tests you build | We publish a call with the reasoning and factors shown |
| Accountability | Historical backtests; you judge your live call | Every call states its reasoning and the level where it would be wrong; outcomes are measured internally, not published |
| Setup effort | You design and test your own system | One synthesized read per day, factors shown |
| Asset classes | Stocks, ETFs, crypto and futures charting | Daily call across every S&P 500 + NASDAQ 100 name, plus sector, country and thematic ETFs |
| Performance claims | Back-testing tools you run yourself | We make none — we publish indicator readings, not win rates, returns or an equity curve |
| Free way to evaluate | Paid tiers; limited trial | Free preview + free report, then a 14-day free trial (card required) |
Why we show the process instead of a win rate
Almost every signal service markets a headline win rate or a cherry-picked backtest. We don't publish performance at all. Our entry and exit rules are still being refined, so any performance figure we printed today would be one we couldn't stand behind — performance is measured internally, not marketed. What we show instead is the process: every call with its reasoning, the indicator readings behind it and the level where the read would be wrong. And we teach the uncomfortable truth that a high hit-rate can still lose money without exit discipline.
The breadth compounds it. One dashboard scores every S&P 500 and NASDAQ 100 name — plus sector, country and thematic ETFs — identically, every trading morning, with macro, options-flow, smart-money and technical analysis in the same place. No name is skipped because it was not interesting that day.
To keep this honest: EPT is research and decision-support, not investment advice, and not a promise of profit. It sharpens your process — it doesn't replace your judgment.
