I have CapIQ/Factset/Macabacus on my work laptop and have become reliant on their formula tracer. Does anyone know a good tool I can get for my personal laptop that is cheap?

Arixcel, cheap and better tracing than more expensive comparables.
God the sophisticated ones also lag because of how dynamic it is, arixcel is straight to the point
Macabacus is cheap
No it’s not
$16/month
Arixcel is one of the best tools I've ever used in that regard. Ctrl + Q and you can flip through formulas in the entire workbook. Also splits up complex nested formulas very easily so you can understand each step of the calculation.
It is very robus/old-school in look and feel but for that works so well as it is lean and quick.
Could never do excel without it.
