Keeping Track, It's Important

 So I've been building up my algorithm for a couple of years now, and finally decided to do a test run on demo. This is a small sample size, and I'll need at least a month or two minimum to get some relevant data. So far things look good. I keep a journal of all of my trades with a screenshot (I use imgur). I blocked out the URL because, well I spent a loooooot of time on this, and I'm not giving it away for free. It's always good to keep a journal to track your progress and see if you need to make any changes. I won't make any until I get a good enough sample size to look at. I keep it simple. Currency pair, amount of pips, long or short, time frame ( I prefer daily or H4), link to a screenshot of the trade, and the comment section. I scan through all trades taken during the week on Sunday, I do my best to keep Saturday as family time when I'm off from my 9 to 5. If you aren't keeping a journal I highly suggest you start, it's good info on how to cut your losses as short as possible which is extremely important in my opinion. How can you get better as a trader without it? You really can't.
