Trading Journal
A record of your trades plus your notes, so you can review and learn.
Definition
A trading journal is simply the history of every trade you have taken, kept in one place alongside your own notes. Instead of relying on memory, you can look back and see what you actually did. The goal is honest review and learning — not bragging rights.
Example
After a week of trading, you open your journal and notice that most of your losses happened on one symbol late in the day. That pattern was invisible until it was written down.
