Clean open. Waited for the first pullback on NPT instead of chasing the spike. That patience set the tone for the whole session. Sized normal, took profits into strength, and carried one playbook reminder into tomorrow.

The review habit
Lessons shouldn't disappear into archived notes. Trading days are full of small moments that are easy to lose: the hesitation before an entry, the rule you bent, the cue that helped you stop.
Trading Journal AI brings notes, charts, P&L, tags, playbook examples, and coaching into one journal-first workflow, so repeated lessons can become standards you actually trade from.

01 · See the day in context
Open a day and the recap sits first: market read, execution, lesson. The trades and P&L sit beside it for reference, not as the headline. When a lesson repeats, it has a place to become a rule, example, or playbook note.
02 · Capture it in seconds
Write a sentence, then tap the pills that fit: one quality call, plus the process and emotion behind it. The same vocabulary every session becomes the raw material for your playbook, so patterns and examples are easy to find later.
Trade Note
NPT · Trade 1 · +$15.44How was this trade?
Textbook green-to-red reclaim. Entered on the reclaim, added on the first pullback, trimmed half into the move. The A+ I keep talking about: patient entry, defined risk, let it work
Process
Emotion
AI coach, grounded in your playbook
PreviewFirst you codify what an A+ trade looks like: the setup, entry, risk, process criteria, and examples you want to repeat. If your playbook is still forming, the coach helps you turn review into clearer standards. Then it reads each imported trade against that playbook, flags where you drifted, and drafts the note and recap in your voice.
Turn process tags, notes, rules, and best examples into your playbook.
Each trade gets read against your own standards, not generic advice.
The coach proposes the note and recap; you always edit before it saves.
Concept preview. Runs on your trades, on your machine.

Local-first
It's the first thing serious traders ask about, and the answer is simple. A trading journal holds some of your most sensitive records: account history, positions, timestamps. Trading Journal AI is a personal tool, not a hosted service. It runs locally and stores everything on disk, so your review habit stays completely private.
Read how it worksEverything lives in a local SQLite file in your project folder. Stopping the app never touches your entries.
Your broker exports and notes are gitignored. Trade data stays yours unless you intentionally deploy or share it.
No hosted account, no monthly fee, no signup. Reflection that does not depend on someone else's server.
Built in the open. Download it, fork it, run it, or use it as the starting point for your own journal.
