Process (most important)
1.Did I follow my trading plan/rules today? Where did I deviate, and why?
2.What was my best trade today, and what made it good?
3.What was my worst trade, and what would I do differently?
Setups & execution
4. What setups did I take? Were they on my approved list?
5. Did I size positions according to my plan, or did emotion drive sizing?
6. How was my entry/exit timing — early, late, or on point?
Mindset & state
7. How was my mental/emotional state before, during, and after the session (calm, anxious, revenge-trading, overconfident)?
8. Did I trade because of a real setup, or out of boredom/FOMO/frustration?
9. Any moment I wanted to break a rule — did I, and what triggered it?
Numbers
10. What was my P&L, win rate, and R-multiple for the day?
11. How many trades did I take vs. my planned max?
Forward-looking
12. What's one thing I'll do the same tomorrow, and one thing I'll change?
13. Any market condition or pattern I noticed that I should watch for going forward?
I day trade MES/ES futures on the 5 minute chart during the New York Session, using RSI(2),10/200 SMA, TICK, and ATR/Range (5 Minute chart and Daily data) to trade mean-reversion setups within the trend.
