Review a game and improve decisions
A winning game may contain a weak decision; a loss may come from a coherent plan facing uncertainty. Improvement means reviewing what was visible when you acted, not only the final curve.
Write the reason before the result
Summarize the hypothesis in one sentence: structure, invalidation, and target.
If the reason changes only after reveal, the review uses information you did not have during play.
Classify repeated errors
Group errors: excess risk, late exit, reaction to one candle, metric overinterpretation, or no plan.
One category repeated across rounds is more useful than a unique comment for every loss.
Measure the process
For Daily, review risk stability across five trades. For Endless, note why you cashed out. For Rush modes, compare exit with the still-visible move, not only final MAX.
Choose one improvement for the next session so its effect can be observed.
The trade wins, but the entry had no invalidation or clear reason. The review separates score from discipline.
Common mistakes
- Rewriting the hypothesis after seeing the future.
- Changing three habits at once.
- Treating every loss as a bad decision and every win as a good one.
Session review
- 1 What information was truly visible?
- 2 Did risk size follow the plan?
- 3 Which single mistake should I watch next time?
Quick questions
Must I analyze every candle?
No. Focus on moments when a decision was made or avoided.
Is maximum possible gain a target?
No. It is retrospective. Chasing it often gives back profit that was already available.
Review can improve consistency in the game, but it cannot predict real markets.
