A weekly review makes mistakes easier to see because the emotions are lower. I like separating strategy losses from execution errors in the notes.

The Value of a Weekly Trading Review
AndreiCeau - 44 minutes ago - 240 views
A weekly trading review can be more useful than reviewing every trade emotionally right after it closes. By the end of the week, the trader can see patterns with a calmer mind.
The review should not only ask how much money was made or lost. Better questions are: which setups performed best, which trades were outside the plan, what time of day produced the worst decisions, and whether position sizing stayed consistent.
I also like separating execution errors from strategy results. If the plan was followed and the trade lost, that is different from a loss caused by chasing, oversizing, or moving the stop.
The weekly review creates accountability. It turns random trading activity into data. Over time, that data shows what to keep, what to reduce, and what to remove completely.
