Creating Your Account
This guide walks you through account creation, subscription activation, and initial setup so you can start using Trade Echo quickly.
Sign-In Options#
When you open the app, choose from three sign-in methods:
| Method | Notes |
|---|---|
| Email + Password | Create an account with your email and a secure password |
| Google Sign-In | One-tap sign-in with your Google account |
| Apple Sign-In | Available on iOS - sign in with Apple ID |
Social sign-in (Google or Apple) syncs your account instantly across devices.
Subscription Activation#
There are two ways to end up with an active account, depending on where you start:
Path A: You subscribed on the website first#
If you paid at checkout on tradeecho.com, your account is created automatically - no separate signup step. All you do is set a password:
- Complete checkout and payment
- Your account is created for you at that moment
- Set your password from the confirmation page or the link in your welcome email
- Sign in - your subscription is already active
Path B: You created an account first#
If you signed up in the app before subscribing, you can explore first and upgrade when ready:
- Go to Profile and tap Subscription
- Choose monthly ($199/mo), annual ($2,199/yr) or Lifetime ($3,499 one-time)
- Complete payment with your preferred method
- Your subscription activates immediately
Either way, a short welcome email sequence follows signup to walk you through the platform.
Exploring the App#
Before diving into trading, take a few minutes to:
- Browse the Dashboard and see how trades are organized

Setting Up Your Profile#
