I screenshot and annotate all my charts / trades. If I trade a ticker all day I'll typically group the trades in 2-3 different imported trades (e.g. like I trade an extension / leg, or I traded a distribution structure breakdown). So sometimes I group multiple round-trips together for the sake of simplicity; but, overall every single ticket and trade is recorded for me. I usually take 2 weekends per month to check or update scenario data that I pull from the charts. The scenario data simply helps my determine if my discretion yields positive expectancy, but more importantly it gives me confidence to execute trades with more and more size (pushing comfort zone is important in trader development).
I post because I want to promote a more curious and open trading community. The best thing for a traders growth is sharing, reciprocating, and understanding the experiences of others.

Beno, thanks for that info you sent me about Greenshot. I thought it was PDF but that didn't work. I finally settled upon googledocs using their slideshow and it gives me a similar look to yours. I really like how you mark up the chart. Question, though; do you do that for every trade you make? I make too many and would be spending a lot of time to do that so I've decided to do it only for my really good, or bad, ones. Your experience with that? I really appreciate your shared posts, btw. I get a lot out of them. You're obv experienced. U post because u have to or want to? just curious. GG
