The verified-trade angle is a strong differentiator, especially when screenshots can be edited so easily. How do you preserve trust when a trader needs to correct fees, partial exits, or other details after broker sync? Do profiles distinguish fully broker-synced results from trades that were added or modified manually? I’d also be interested in how you balance public verification with keeping account balances and sensitive trading data private.
What I'd watch carefully is the relationship between performance tracking and community.
Those are both valuable on their own.
The interesting question is whether they strengthen each other, or whether one eventually becomes the reason people join while the other becomes the reason they leave.
That's usually harder to see early on than it seems.

We were tired of overpriced trading journals and social platforms full of unverified results. PNL Log exists to make serious performance tracking free and build a social layer where traders can share credible results.
