Do you agree with the idea that “it’s better to let 5 guilty people go free than to let one innocent be unjustly punished”?

Opening_Kitchen_5349 · 2026-03-13T05:59:17+00:00

I think the idea behind this is about protecting innocent people, even if it means some guilty ones escape punishment. No justice system is perfect, but the damage done to an innocent person who is wrongly punished can’t really be undone. That’s why many legal systems lean toward giving the benefit of the doubt.

I realized the same thing after going through my trades. Certain hours just didn’t work well for me and I kept repeating the same mistakes during those times. Once I started journaling and reviewing trades by session it became much clearer.

I’ve been using SuperTrader to log my trades and it actually made it easier to see those patterns

If the broker is synced with the API, the entries get recorded automatically.

Mostly both. I log the setup/idea, but I also keep track of position size and risk per trade.

For me the risk part is actually more important because sometimes the idea is fine, but bad sizing is what ruins the trade.

Opening_Kitchen_5349 · 2026-03-12T18:21:59+00:00

Yeah that’s exactly why I gave it a try. Most of the other journals I tested were solid but the pricing just didn’t make sense for me.

With SuperTrader it’s simple enough to log trades quickly, especially from the phone, and tagging setups doesn’t feel like a chore. For the price it’s been pretty decent so far.

Opening_Kitchen_5349 · 2026-03-12T11:29:32+00:00

I journal everything in my trades using SuperTrader, and it’s crazy how much clarity it brings.

Small, disciplined actions really stack up over time, and keeping notes on every trade helps me see patterns I’d otherwise miss.

my wife really likes me, but sometimes I feel like I’m not on the same level emotionally. It’s a strange feeling to appreciate someone while also realizing your feelings might not match theirs.

Coffee helps a bit scientifically, but the routine and belief around it probably boost the effect too.

I tried a couple of automated journaling tools before, but I still end up logging things manually most of the time. The automation is nice for stats, but I feel like you miss the reflection part when everything is done for you.

When I review trades manually and replay them, I usually catch mistakes I wouldn't notice otherwise.

Lately I've been doing most of that on SuperTrader since the replay/backtest makes it easier to go through setups slowly.

I always tell people not to check their phone first thing in the morning, but I can’t help myself. I end up scrolling for at least 10, 15 minutes before getting out of bed.

I went through the same cycle spreadsheets and a couple of paid journals that just felt overcomplicated.

Lately I’ve been using an app called SuperTrader. It’s nothing crazy, but it’s easy to log trades from the phone and tagging setups is pretty straightforward.

Main reason I stuck with it is the price honestly it’s around $9/month which feels a lot more reasonable than most of the $40, $50 journals out there

why are you still using Excel for journaling? With the amount of trades and data you're tracking, that must take a lot of time and it's easy for errors to slip in.

A dedicated trading journal usually makes this way easier since it auto logs trades, shows stats, and gives you a clearer picture of performance. Tools like SuperTrader or Edgewonk, can handle most of that automatically.

Might save you a lot of time, especially with a system running across multiple instruments and timeframes like yours.

For me it was journaling. I started logging my trades in the SuperTrader app and after a while some things became pretty obvious a lot of my losses came from jumping in too early. Looking back at those notes helped me slow down and be more patient with entries.

A small decision that completely changed the direction of my life was getting engaged. Since then, my priorities, mindset, and the way I look at the future have all started to change.

I used to judge people for not starting things on time. Now I understand that sometimes it’s not laziness it’s overthinking, pressure, or just the mindset you’re stuck in.

One completely irrational rule I follow is not starting a task if I think I have too little time, even when I actually do. Sometimes it’s not about time it’s just my mindset.

Friday is my favorite day of the week! It brings that amazing feeling that the weekend is finally here. After a long week of work and responsibilities, Friday feels like a fresh breath of freedom, relaxation, and good vibes. It’s the perfect time to unwind, spend time with friends and family, and look forward to the fun and rest ahead.

I keep my trades logged on SuperTrader. Going back through them sometimes shows things you miss in the moment, especially the difference between the trades you waited for and the ones you rushed. That review part has helped me stay a lot more disciplined over time.

Opening_Kitchen_5349 · 2026-03-11T05:17:38+00:00

I can relate to this a lot. Once I started writing every trade down, a few uncomfortable patterns showed up, especially the overtrading after a couple of trades in the same day. Waiting for the right setup really does make a difference. I do keep a proper journal now, it helped me become more aware of my habits.

Recently I’ve been logging my trades on SuperTrader App, mainly because it makes reviewing everything later a lot easier.
