The trading journal template we would use
A journal turns random results into a process you can improve. Keep it short enough that you actually fill it in.
Five fields per trade
Setup, reason for entry, risk in percent, exit reason, and one line on how you felt. That is enough to find patterns within a month.
Weekly review
Every Friday, sort trades by setup. Cut the setup that loses the most. Add size to the one that pays.
Screenshots beat memory
Save a chart at entry and exit. Your future self will remember the trade differently than it happened.
