Every session I trade, written up the night it happens: the chart, the trades, what went right and what I left on the table. Good nights and bad nights both. The full log lives in TradeZella; this is the readable version.
Numbers come from my prop-firm accounts and are shown for education, not as a track record. Times are Eastern. Risk disclaimer.
