A simple way to improve trade reviews is to save one screenshot before entry and one after exit. The first screenshot captures what you actually saw at the moment of decision. The second shows how the trade developed.
This helps because memory is not reliable. After a trade wins or loses, it is easy to rewrite the story. A screenshot makes the review more honest. You can see whether the setup was clean, whether the level was obvious, and whether the entry matched your plan.
Add three notes under each screenshot: why I entered, where I was wrong, and what I felt during the trade. Over time, patterns become visible. You may notice that your best trades happen near clear levels, or that your worst trades happen after missing the first move.
A journal does not need to be complicated. It needs to be honest enough to show behavior.
