Adding a trade
- Date, time and market: when and what you traded.

- Entry, exit and profit or loss in pounds.
- Quick trade review: plan followed and how you felt.
- What did you learn? One short lesson is enough.
Golden rules
- Log every trade, losers too, or the numbers lie.
- Write it straight away, while you still remember why.
- Judge the process, not one result: did you follow your plan?
- Review weekly and change one thing at a time.
🗓 Tip: pick a time each week, such as Sunday evening, and open Weekly Review.
