Thank Victortrend for this wonderful post and the picture that explains the market structure perfectly. Applause

Hello everyone, how is your week going? I wanted to ask you if you usually keep a diary of your trades that you do throughout the days? If so, how do you do it? Do you use any software, an Excel sheet, screenshots? I would like to know your opinion in this regard.

Hi Victor,
I'm still one of the old school. At the end of the day I draw my ENTRY's and EXIT's and why I made that decision at that point. So the relevant information.
This is roughly how you usually draw it on your charts with entry and exit. And then you just have to answer the question WHY.

Both of these scripts will take a snapshot of your trading screen prior to closing your trade and save the file to MQL4/Files directory.
Just edit the screen size for your snapshot and create a hotkey to launch the script
I use Alt+X for Panic Button (closes ALL trades) & Alt C for Chicken Switch (closes current chart trade) as hotkeys to close my trades.
Remember to place the enclosed scripts in the scripts folder.
Best,

NB On the 30-minute screen:
Make sure to focus on the Dots located at the top and bottom of each session box.

Xard Any idea why the ZigZag lines are like this?
