If you're trading without a journal, you’re basically flying blind. One of the biggest upgrades I ever made in my trading journey was starting a Forex trading journal and honestly, the growth it brings is insane.
A good journal doesn’t just record wins and losses… it reveals your trader personality.
You start to see:
Patterns you never noticed before suddenly become obvious.
You don’t need some fancy app. A simple spreadsheet or notebook is enough as long as you're honest with yourself. Note down your entry, exit, reason for the trade, market conditions, and how you felt during the trade. Then review it weekly. You’ll be shocked at how quickly your discipline improves.

You start to see:
- Which setups you actually trade well
- What triggers your bad decisions
- When you’re overtrading
- How emotions affect your entries and exits
- Which strategies print money and which drain your account
