Core workflow
Forex weekly review that turns data into discipline.
The weekly review helps traders turn logged trades, trade screenshots, mistakes, R multiple, expectancy, journal days, and plan compliance into one clear next-week focus. It is designed for backtesting review, live trading review, real accounts, and prop-firm accounts.
What is the weekly review?
The weekly review is the part of the journal where raw trade entries become decisions. Instead of scrolling through trades without a conclusion, the review asks what worked, what failed, what was repeated, and what should change before the next trading week.
What it helps you check
Performance
Review trades, R multiple, R:R, expectancy, week change, journal days, and whether the week moved your account in the right direction.
Discipline
Check plan compliance, incomplete entries, missed trade screenshots, and whether execution matched your trading rules.
Next focus
Choose one behavior to keep, stop, or improve so the next week has a clear purpose.
Archive and export workflow
Weekly review can use the years, months, and weeks where trade data exists, so old backtesting periods and live trading weeks remain reviewable. Traders can complete a weekly review, select an export theme, and download a weekly card that summarizes the reviewed period without exposing the full private journal.
Why weekly review matters
Most traders do not fail because they lack activity. They fail because they repeat the same behavior without seeing it clearly. A weekly review slows the process down enough to find repeated mistakes, protect strengths, and avoid turning one bad day into a whole bad month.
How it helps beginners and advanced traders
Beginners can use weekly review to learn what a good trade record looks like and which mistakes happen most often. Advanced traders can use it to compare setups, sessions, risk behavior, expectancy, drawdown, trade screenshot evidence, and trade quality across multiple weeks. The same workflow stays useful as the account grows.
