Does TakeProfit or TrendSpider have a mobile app, and what do they script in?
TakeProfit runs in a browser with no installation, while TrendSpider adds native iOS and Android apps. TakeProfit's docs say mobile use is through a mobile browser, but its Terms of Use mention mobile applications, so the vendor's own pages disagree. TakeProfit scripts are written in Indie, a dialect of Python that runs server-side in the cloud, and Pine Script logic can be translated with AI tools, with complex features needing manual work. TrendSpider writes custom indicators in JavaScript, with an AI coding assistant and Visual Scripting, a no-code way to build conditions that are reused across scanning, backtesting and alerts. TrendSpider also states that it converts plain-language input such as 'price above sma 200' into those conditions. For libraries, TakeProfit lists 80+ native indicators, built on its own WebGL2 charting engine; TrendSpider's pricing page says 300+ indicators while its product page says 400+.

TakeProfit's AI assistant analyzes charts, writes Indie scripts and manages alerts, but writing code with it needs a paid plan or the user's own API key. For screening, TakeProfit offers a stock screener covering about 5,000 US stocks, while TrendSpider's Market Scanner has more than 70 built-in scans and custom multi-factor criteria; it uses a separate data feed from charts, so results may not fully match chart data. All figures come from the vendors' own pages, last checked in October 2026.
How do TakeProfit alerts and backtesting compare with TrendSpider?
TakeProfit's All-In plan includes up to 400 non-expiring cloud alerts, while TrendSpider's Standard plan allows 10 alerts valid for 30 days and its Advanced plan 400 alerts valid for 365 days. TakeProfit's free plan allows 1 alert valid for 3 months. TakeProfit alerts deliver by Telegram, email, in-platform pop-ups or webhooks, and its latency figures conflict: feature pages claim under 100 ms, while the FAQ gives about 300 ms typically, up to about 1 second, and states this is not a guaranteed delivery time. TrendSpider alerts deliver by text message, push, e-mail or in-app notification, with webhooks, and include dynamic alerts attached to trendlines and indicators. TakeProfit's strategy tester runs on up to 20,000 candles; TrendSpider's no-code Strategy Tester is built with natural language or menus, with backtest depth from 2K on Standard to 30K on Advanced.

The homepage menu marks Chart Trading, Algo Trading and DOM Trading as coming soon, while the Trading FAQ describes chart trading on Bybit as available, so the pages differ. TakeProfit's Indie scripts produce analysis and alerts, with live trading through webhook alerts. TrendSpider's strategy bots turn a backtest into a forward test on real-time data and can act as autonomous bots; all plans include 5 free automated orders per month. On data, TrendSpider lists 61,000+ assets and charges $7.50 per month for futures; TakeProfit claims 5,000+ instruments, though its Terms describe personal crypto tools. All figures come from the vendors' own pages, last checked in October 2026.
Which company operates TakeProfit and TrendSpider, and is there an uptime SLA?
TakeProfit's Terms of Use name Takeprofit Systems Ltd, a British Virgin Islands business company, as the contracting entity, while TrendSpider is operated by TrendSpider LLC, an Illinois limited liability company. TakeProfit's homepage footer shows 'TakeProfit Inc', so the vendor's pages differ on the entity name; its Terms are governed by British Virgin Islands law and TrendSpider's by Illinois law. TakeProfit states it does not hold user funds, and no regulatory licence number was found; TrendSpider describes itself as a software platform, not a broker, and not investment advice.
