Why Journal?
Build Self-Awareness
Journaling forces you to articulate your thinking. Writing “I took this trade because I was scared of missing the move” creates awareness that simply trading doesn’t provide.Identify Patterns
Over time, your journal reveals:- Which setups produce your best results
- Which emotional states lead to losses
- Patterns in your best and worst days
- Recurring mistakes to eliminate
Create Accountability
When you document trades as they happen, you create an honest record. No rewriting history. No forgetting the bad trades.Improve With Mentors
If you have a trading coach, journal entries give them context for feedback. They can see not just what you traded, but why.What to Document
Effective journaling captures both the technical and psychological aspects of your trading:| Category | What to Include |
|---|---|
| Pre-Market | Key levels, session bias, plan for the day |
| Trade Reasoning | Why you entered, what setup triggered it |
| Emotional State | How you felt (confident, anxious, FOMO, calm) |
| Trade Management | How you managed the position |
| Post-Trade Review | What happened, what you learned |
| Setup Classification | Was this an A+ setup, B setup, or off-plan trade? |
