Why review

The part everyone skips, and what it is actually for.

Why review is hard and necessary

Review is psychological work, which is why it gets skipped. Looking at a bad session properly is unpleasant, and the mind is efficient at finding reasons not to.

Without review you have stories. With review you have a record, made before you had time to build a softer version of events.

What review is not: a search for the indicator you missed. Chart forensics feel like analysis and mostly produce a new reason to trust a different signal. The questions that change behavior are duller. Did I follow my process? Did I check what I said I would check? What did I feel just before I did that? Would I take the same trade again knowing only what I knew then?

TraderReflex supports review at two levels. The day level asks what the session was: which rules held, which passes you logged, what you wrote, how you scored yourself. The trade level asks what a single decision was, with replay so you can watch it again with your own notes on the timeline.

A realistic standard: review every day at the day level, and review a few trades properly rather than all of them badly.
