I gave GoCharting a try too — it’s got a nice, modern layout, but I hit some limits pretty quickly, especially when trying to replay trades or export data. It’s decent for charting, but I needed something more powerful for testing and learning from my mistakes. The blog https://forextester.com/blog/gocharting-alternatives/ from Forex Tester helped me find a few platforms that bridge that gap — charting plus strategy testing in one place. What stood out to me was how they broke down the pros and cons clearly, not just selling one option. Since switching, my workflow feels smoother: I analyze, test, and journal all in the same ecosystem. GoCharting is fine for visual setups, but once you start analyzing performance in detail, you realize how limited it can feel.

I’ve had a similar experience with charting tools — they all look good at first, but once you start using them daily, you notice the little annoyances. I’m a visual person, so layout and workflow are super important to me. I’ve customized my setup a lot — color-coded zones, alerts on key levels, and screenshots of every major move I trade. It keeps my analysis clean and easy to review later. What I’ve learned is that no charting tool will ever feel “perfect,” but if you tailor it to your style, you can make it work. Consistency matters more than the software anyway.
