[Record the scenes you didn't enter in the diary] Compare the patient’s awaiting judgment
Only the agreed charts remain in the log, and the days you waited aren’t blank, right?
Good evening!
This is Masashi^^
If the trading log ends up with only the profit-and-loss statement, you can’t see the decisions that didn’t enter. Then by the weekend,
only the moments you touched remain as if they were lessons learned.
Abstaining isn’t something to be deemed a success, nor something to blame as an opportunity loss.
Record how you viewed the lack of conditions and make it material that allows later comparison with the same state.
✅ Separate Abstaining from Undecided
There are days when even with insufficient conditions, it’s ambiguous whether you fully discarded the candidate or you’re waiting.
If you’re still waiting for a reaction, the candidate is alive. On the other hand, if you can’t explain the cancellation point,
that’s abstaining at that point. If you leave both blank, when you later look at a chart that progressed,
you won’t know whether you should have waited or should not have touched it.
What you want to avoid is making both blanks and later adding meaning.
In the records, leave【Waiting for reaction/holding; Cancellation unknown abstaining; Condition met and adopted】.
By separating the statuses, you won’t chase candidates that were waiting in the middle.
✅ Leave one line describing the chosen status and time.
? This record: 【Waiting for reaction/holding; Cancellation unknown abstaining; Condition met and adopted】
? Save the screen at the moment of abstention
A chart only after the end doesn’t tell you what was missing at the time.
On the screen at the moment of decision, there is no later-added candlestick. Leave one image with the lines added,
and attach the decision time. If you place the image side by side with the post-termination image,
you can verify whether you could have chosen based only on the materials visible at the time.
If you add lines before saving the image, you might obscure the decision at that time. At minimum, leave the location of candidates,
the distance from the wall, whether there was a reaction, and whether you could place a cancellation point. If explanations are added later,
append them to a separate note rather than rewriting the original image.
When you look back later, it’s easy to say, but when you were in front of the screen, there were still footnotes you couldn’t see yet.
What you want to avoid is reconstructing the initial decision on the screen where you learned the result.
In the records, leave【In front of the wall/Reaction not verified/Cannot place a cancellation point】.
If you have the first screen, you can compare without mixing in hindsight.
✅ Save one image before adding lines.
? This record: 【In front of the wall/Reaction not verified/Cannot place a cancellation point】
? Narrow the abstaining reason to one sentence
If the reason is long, you can later pick only the convenient parts.
Just noting that you were cautious isn’t usable for the next time. For example, if there wasn’t room before the wall,
you should condense that insufficiency into one sentence. If fear was the reason, write it openly in another field as well,
so you can distinguish technical insufficiency from a wavering feeling.
What you want to avoid is concealing facts with the impression of being cautious.
In the records, leave【Abstaining due to no margin before the higher-timeframe wall】.
If a concrete insufficiency remains, you can use the same standard in the next scene.
For example, even if it’s the same “didn’t enter,” a scene where there was no margin to the wall and a scene where you waited for a reaction are different. The previous scene should explain why you discarded the candidate;
the later scene needs the next condition you would have looked for.
If you just look at the finished chart and combine the two, you’re more likely to conclude “I should have waited.”
When recording, write only with the information at the time: 【Reaction not verified; recheck at 21:00】, and put later-discovered price movements in a separate field. Only when separation is possible can you compare whether abstaining was early or reasonable.
✅ Separate emotions into another field and keep facts brief.
? This record: 【No margin until the higher-timeframe wall; abstaining】
? Reserve the next condition to watch
Candidates on hold become bothersome every time you open the screen.
Reopening held candidates repeatedly will change interpretations even if there are no new facts.
Decide one price or time to open next, and close the screen up to that point. If a notification rings but the conditions aren’t met, that turn remains on hold.
What should you look at first in this scene?
The answer is to fix either the price or the time as the recheck condition.
In the records, leave【Reached milestone and do not reopen until 21:00】.
Once you decide the entry point for recheck, you can reduce patience-based orders.
✅ Set one notification and close the screen.
? This record: 【Reached milestone and do not reopen until 21:00】
⚠ Don’t judge failures by only the later extended results
If the price moves after you abstain, you feel you made a poor decision.
Prices that move after abstaining do not retroactively provide the missing reaction from the time.
You can write "increase" in the results column, but the decision column stays as it was at that time. If you change it later,
you should check whether the same insufficiency condition repeated multiple times.
If the phrase “I could have taken it if I waited a little more” appears,
you should reread what you looked at and what you planned to adopt. If there was no plan,
you effectively created a standard from the results. If there was a plan and you discarded candidates before it,
the thing to revisit is the speed of abstaining.
Seeing the extended result can sting. Don’t erase that feeling; separately keep the materials that were missing at the time.
What you want to avoid is adding the possibility of profit to the original justification.
In the records, leave【Reaction insufficient at the time/Result is rise/Abstaining was reasonable】.
Separating results from steps helps you maintain the criteria for waiting.
✅ Record price movement results in a separate column.
? This record: 【Reaction insufficient at the time/Result is rise/Abstaining was reasonable】
? Don’t miss too-early abstaining
If you make all abstentions correct decisions, improvement points disappear.
If all abstentions are correct, you’ll hide the habit of discarding candidates too early. Even if you set a recheck time,
did you close before that? If the conditions were still there but you didn’t keep the screen open, then you can distinguish waiting judgments from fleeing judgments.
What you want to avoid is evaluating safety merely because you didn’t touch it.
In the records, leave【Delete candidate before scheduled time/Conditions will be met later】.
If you also record the fact you closed early, you can reveal a tendency toward caution.
Also check the time you released the hold. If you opened the screen many times before the planned time,
the abstaining issue might be more about your environment for waiting than the abstaining itself.
Changing the notification position or verification time may come before increasing exception trading conditions. On the other hand,
if you confirmed new facts at the planned time and discarded the candidate, that isn’t abstaining too early.
See the same “didn’t touch” by separating the operation time and conditions.
✅ Compare abstaining times with the recheck schedule.
? This record: 【Delete candidate before scheduled time/Conditions will be met later】
? Align only the same type of items in three entries
If you compare different scenes at once, the common points won’t appear.
Don’t compare buy and sell, morning and night, or scenes where you couldn’t place a cancellation point with scenes waiting for a reaction at once.
If you line up only the three with the same insufficiency, abstaining will appear as consistent. If there aren’t enough entries,
you may keep the conclusion on hold.
What you want to avoid is mixing buy and sell, time of day, and insufficient conditions.
In the records, leave【Place three abstaining items with unknown cancellation side by side】.
When you align the comparison targets, the next focal point becomes clear.
✅ Choose only three entries in a week.
? This record: 【Place three abstaining entries with unknown cancellation side by side】
? Separate profit-and-loss counting and tracking
If you include abstaining in the profit column, it will be treated as zero and lightly handled.
Abstaining has neither profit nor loss. If you enter it as zero in the P&L, the factual decision gets buried.
In another table, count “reasonable abstaining,” “too-early abstaining,” and “number of times you released a hold,”
to improve without increasing order frequency.
A week with more abstaining isn’t necessarily a good week. Look at how many situations you considered candidates and
how many were discarded for insufficient conditions together. It’s to avoid counting days you simply didn’t open the screen and days you looked and decided as the same number.
What you want to avoid is treating decision-making with no profit as if it didn’t exist.
In the records, leave【Three reasonable abstainings/One early abstain/Two holds released】.
If you use different numbers, you can also improve decisions that didn’t place an order.
✅ On weekends, tally separately from the P&L.
? This record: 【Three reasonable abstainings/One early abstaining/Two holds released】
✔ Do not convert emotions into conditions
When you were scared to enter, you want to tidy the reasons later.
Before rephrasing fear as “the margin is narrow,” actually check the margin to the wall. If the margin is enough,
it’s more accurate to keep fear as fear. You don’t need to erase your feelings, but do not record them as chart facts.
There are days with fear. I want to quietly not turn that feeling into words like wall or reaction in the chart.
What you want to avoid is replacing anxiety with words like wall or reaction.
In the records, leave【Anxiety is strong/Wall is close/Reaction unverified】.
With clear column separation, you can fix things without mixing in technique and psychology.
The purpose of the emotional column isn’t to erase fear.
It’s to cross-check later whether the wall was actually close or the reaction was insufficient on the moments where you wrote “scary.”
Even if fear is strong, if there wasn’t an insufficiency in the chart, leave it as “abstained due to feelings.”
Conversely, even if you’re calm, if you cannot place a cancellation point, there is a reason to abstain.
By recording both emotion and conditions, you don’t have to push all the reasons to one side.
✅ Do not erase the emotions; place them outside the order conditions.
? This record: 【Anxiety is strong/Wall is close/Reaction unverified】
⭕ Leave one abstaining criterion for next week
The more you add criteria in hindsight, the slower your judgments will be next week.
If you create ten exceptions on the weekend, you won’t be able to revisit them in the next week’s screen. Pick the most frequent insufficiency and write, for the next time a similar scene occurs, 【If the cancellation point cannot be stated, abstain】.
Other insights go to the hold note, not to complicate the items for verification the following week.
What you want to avoid is adding all exceptions to the rules.
In the records, leave【Next week, do not touch candidates whose cancellation point cannot be stated】.
One item is manageable in-session as well, and you can continue to compare.
✅ Move other insights to the hold memo.
? This record: 【Next week, do not touch candidates whose cancellation point cannot be stated】

? Summary: carry forward to the next attempt
If you leave days with no actions blank, the log will skew toward increasing orders. Expand the scope of recording from moments with profit or loss to moments where decisions were made.
Leave abstaining reasons, next verification conditions, and results in separate fields. Even if the results extend, do not treat abstaining as a failure;
see whether you could reproduce the same judgment with the information available at the time.
By placing entries such as execution, abstaining, and undecided in the same log, you can see not only how many times you waited but also those you discarded quickly.
Please cultivate the reproducibility of judgments on a separate axis from profits.
In this week’s record, don’t just select the entries that yielded profit; place abstaining events and planned stop-loss in the same table as well.
By recording what you were looking at before you acted, it becomes easier to pick the next item to modify.
You don’t need to change all items on the next screen at once. Choose only one thing you missed today, and keep the time and the observed facts. If there isn’t enough material, don’t decide; leave it on hold.
