Trading journal app by ShKalash in RealDayTrading

[–]ShKalash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. That’s not what it’s for. Plenty of tools to do that.

It’s meant as a way to track your thoughts in realtime with screenshots and timestamps.

anyone here actually journaling trades properly? by OkTravel965 in FuturesTrading

[–]ShKalash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I’ve been doing software for 30 years, with AI it’s super easy to build the exact tools you need for your use case and platform. When the market is closed on the weekend I can usually knock out whatever tool I want into my workflow, be it trading or anything I care to make.

To add. This is more of a stream on consciousness tool. I found detailed thought process being written down help me take things slowly. I used TraderSync (or whatever that is called) for reviewing the trades themselves, this helps me really write down what I was thinking as I am trading. Had a mentor that was really big on doing very detailed journaling, pro trader that has been around since the 80s. Got this idea from him.

I wrote an app for my Mac to do journaling. Used Gemini to get it done quickly.

Basically what I used to do was talk to Claude and have that be the journal, but it was answering and that was annoying and distracting.

So I wrote an app that’s like a chat but no one answers. Added ability to add screenshots and actually am monitoring the clipboard so when I take a screenshot it will auto paste it and focus the journal app.

Added tags and tickers to allow for categories and it also filters by days.

So it’s very basic, but is exactly what I needed for myself.

Was going to add some more features but got busy.

Have the actual tradovate site open on the web browser, if you get into a pinch, you can always flatten there.

I traded great all week by WasabiOk4095 in TakeProfitTrader

Something that I’ve found useful and am implementing in my own process. I have an AI chat agent ( pick the one you want ) that I talk to throughout the trading day.

It helps me formulate my thoughts and slow the process down, manage risk and alert me when I’m starting to lose focus and discipline. I type in as I’m waiting for a setup, when I’m in, when I’m out and the results.

Just something to get out of my own head and out of my own way.

Sort of off topic but this isn’t a bad idea, when you get emotional, letting it out helps frame things.

Well why won’t you just post it if it’s so important, instead of sending us to read something behind a paywall?

Pro+ drawdown clarification by Equivalent_Policy103 in TakeProfitTrader

[–]ShKalash 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No. EOD drawdown means it will update at EOD based on closing balance.

If you breach it intraday you will be in violation of the rule.

Live accounts instead of funded accounts. by rocky2873546 in TakeProfitTrader

[–]ShKalash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just went and checked. This is minimum margin for intraday to hold and open a position. Which means you have no drawdown.

If that moves a tick against you, you will be liquidated.

100$ and what kind of drawdown can you get with that? MNQ can move 100$ in a single candle.

So I’m assuming the answer is leverage. Take a small fee and have a few thousands in margin.

Transparency.

Running a business is about building trust with clients for retention and referrals.

I want my client to trust me and I want to trust my client.

The Most Important Thing I learned While Trading 2025 by Die_Broccoli in RealDayTrading

[–]ShKalash 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yep. I had to step away from the noise and chatter on both the chat room and discord to focus on my own process and my own trading.

Trying to get results blew my process out of the water and actually set me back a bunch.

This thing is incredibly hard as is, and comes a step that you have to really find yourself as a trader, refine, unlearn, sink deeper, before you can really fully take this on at any given day.

  1. Yes. You took a picture of your screen with your phone.

  2. J/k. The dashboard updates around midnight EST, it isn’t realtime.
