Notebook

A free-form space for plans, watchlists, and longer notes.

Definition

The notebook is where longer-form thinking lives — trading plans, pre-market notes, watchlists, and ideas that do not belong to a single trade. It complements the daily journal: one is "today’s recap", the other is your ongoing reference library.

Example

Before the week starts you write a plan in the notebook listing the symbols you will watch and the conditions you need to see before trading.

Why it matters
