How It Works
A quick guide to understanding all the features of the trading stream.
Let's get one thing straight: this is a real-time trading journal, not a showcase of just the wins. I've been in the trading trenches for a long time, and like many, my early years were a costly, frustrating mess. I've blown a couple of accounts chasing 'holy grail' indicators, over-leveraged on a 'sure thing,' and jumped from one strategy to the next faster than you can say 'margin call.'
These days, my focus has shifted entirely to the boring stuff: a deep obsession with risk management, treating trading as a business of probabilities, and trying to keep my own psychology in check. This isn't a secret formula for guaranteed profits—losses are, and always will be, a part of the game. This journal is simply my live ledger where that process unfolds. It's my skin in the game, a tool for my own accountability where every decision is laid bare.
So, I'm not here to prove I'm a guru. Some trades will win, others will lose—that's the reality. My only suggestion is to pull up a chair and watch. The results, tracked live by the system, let's see where the market takes us.
The Live Journal Feed
The main feed is a real-time log of every action I take. It's organized chronologically, with the newest posts at the top. Here you'll find new trade setups and broader market analysis. Every trade contains its own complete history.
Understanding Post Types
Trade Setup
This is a new trade idea, showing all the key parameters: the instrument, the action (e.g., Buy Limit), entry price, stop loss, and take profit levels.
On the Radar
Broader market analysis or commentary on instruments that are on my watchlist but do not yet have a specific trade setup.
The Complete Trade Story
Some trade have a complete documented journey from initial analysis to final outcome. When you click 'View Trade Story' on any trade setup, you'll see the full chronological timeline that led to that trade.
How Trade Stories Develop:
Market Analysis ("On the Radar")
We publish broader market analysis posts when we spot instruments worth watching. These explain the technical setup, fundamental drivers, and key levels we're monitoring for potential trade opportunities.
Trade Setup Posted
When the conditions from our analysis are met, we post the actual trade setup with specific entry, stop loss, and take profit levels. This trade is directly linked to the original analysis.
Live Updates & Outcome
The system automatically tracks the trade progress and logs any manual adjustments (like moving stop losses). You see the complete journey from initial idea to final result.
Why this matters: Instead of just seeing isolated trade setups, you get the full context and reasoning behind every decision. You can follow the logical progression from market observation → analysis → trade execution → outcome.
Active & Pending Trades Widget
The live and pending trades widget appears in the sidebar (on mobile, it shows up as the first item on the homepage). It gives you a quick overview of all open trades, letting you track the real-time status of active and pending positions without scrolling through the entire feed. Click on any trade to see the full story, including detailed levels and attached analysis posts.
Understanding Trade Management:
Real-Time Journey Visualization
The gauge shows both the original stop loss level and current (adjusted) levels. Labels above each circle indicate Entry, Live price, SL (current stop loss), TP1, and TP2 positions, making it easy to see how the trade has evolved.
Moving Stop Loss to Breakeven
When a trade moves significantly in our favor (typically 25-50 pips), we often move the stop loss to the entry price. This removes all risk from the trade - worst case becomes a "scratch" (no loss) instead of a losing trade, while preserving full upside potential.

Real-Time Data & Performance
The journal is powered by a live price feed. This allows the system to automatically track pending orders, activate trades, and hit Stop Loss or Take Profit levels. The 'Account Growth' snapshot on the sidebar is updated in real-time as trades close, giving you a transparent look at overall performance.
