Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Trade Analytics at none against FX Journal's 2. Trade Analytics also leads on ratings volume (30 vs 2). FX Journal's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and review sentiment (100% vs 74%). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
