Free Stuff . About Us . Great traders keep a Trading Journal, documenting the specifics of every trade so that they can learn from their mistakes and duplicate their successes. We've created a nice little Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that you might find helpful in tracking your trades. If you use a journal faithfully it will force you to be more disciplined in your trading, determining your targets and stops prior to buying and also thinking carefully about why you are making your trades.
Motivation is so much more important than most traders want to admit.
Using our Trading Journal will help you analyze why you make your trades so that you can correlate your successful trades with motivators. The Trading Journal is provided in Windows Excel '95 format.
