The journaling method
How we structure a session record — the same spine used in intensives, weekly reviews, and mentoring.
The method is deliberately narrow. It does not invent indicators or rename candlestick patterns. It trains a repeatable way to write what you see, what would prove you wrong, and what actually happened.
Map the prior structure
Before bias talk: note the range, the last decisive break, and liquidity that still matters. If you cannot point to it on the chart, it does not enter the journal.
Write levels as commitments
Each level needs a reason tied to price behaviour — not a round number alone. We mark soft language in sessions until the page names what the market must do to invalidate the idea.
Separate plan from weather
Pre-session notes stay short. Mood, news anxiety, and fatigue belong in a single attention line — never mixed into the structure paragraph where they pretend to be analysis.
Review without rewriting
After the session, compare the page to the print. Edits that improve clarity are welcome; edits that rescue ego are not. Weekly reviews exist to catch the second kind.
Materials we use in training
Paper journals remain welcome. Digital templates work if you can annotate freely. We supply a starter page layout during the Price Action Journal Intensive; mentoring clients receive a trimmed version matched to their markets.
