# What is NextTick?

> NextTick is the all-in-one trading journal and analytics platform built to help you find your edge, cut your losing patterns, and grow as a trader.

NextTick brings together every tool serious traders reach for — a fast trade log, deep analytics, a backtesting lab, goal tracking, verified education, and a social feed where every post is backed by a real fill. Instead of stitching together spreadsheets, screenshot folders, and Twitter threads, you work inside one platform that connects your raw trade data to every insight you need.

NextTick is currently in **closed beta**. You can join the waitlist at [nexttick.app](https://nexttick.app) to secure early access.

## Six pillars

Every feature in NextTick belongs to one of six pillars. Together they cover the full loop: log a trade, analyze it, replay it, set goals around it, learn from others who've traded it, and share your own results with the community.

## Who NextTick is for

NextTick is designed for active traders at any experience level — from someone logging their first equity trades to a seasoned futures trader who wants granular analytics. If you're serious enough to review your trades rather than just take them, NextTick gives you the infrastructure to do it well.

The **Free** plan covers the full trade log with no limits on trade count, so you can start building a journal immediately. **Pro** unlocks the analytics suite and Backtesting Lab. **Creator** adds verified publishing tools for traders who teach. See [Plans & Pricing](/plans) for a full comparison.

## Closed beta

NextTick is currently accepting users through a waitlist. When your spot opens, you'll receive an email invitation with a link to create your account and set up your profile. Features and pricing described in these docs reflect the current beta state and may change before general availability.
