Revenge trading journal

Review the trades after the loss.

Import closed trades and review what happened after losses: fast re-entries, size changes, repeat attempts, and whether the sequence matched your plan. The goal is reflection, not shame or prediction.

What it removes

What manual tagging misses

Sequence review, not tag-based

You do not need to label a trade in the moment. The review looks for timing and sequence clues in closed trades.

Outcome is not validation

A post-loss re-entry can win and still reinforce a risky habit. The review keeps the behavior separate from the result.

One experiment per week

The review points toward a concrete constraint to test, such as a delay after losses or no same-symbol re-entry.

How it works

Catch it in the data, not in the regret.

Connect your trades

Import via MT5 XLSX, Tradovate CSV, manual entry, or optional MT5 sync when setup capacity is available.

Get your review

When likely post-loss sequences appear in your data, the weekly review can surface them with the specific trades cited.

Test one constraint

The review ends with a specific experiment: a rule to test next week that directly targets the pattern it surfaced.

FAQ

The quick answers.

Do I have to manually tag revenge trades?

No. The review can flag likely post-loss re-entry sequences from timing and trade history, so you do not have to rely only on manual tags.

What counts as a revenge trade in the review?

A fast re-entry on the same or related symbol after a loss, often with tighter spacing, similar size, or repeating direction. The review looks at the sequence — not just the tag.

What if the revenge trade actually won?

A win does not automatically validate the process. The review helps you separate outcome from whether the sequence matched your plan.

Is this only for forex?

No. The behavioral review works for any instrument you trade through MT5 — forex, indices, commodities, crypto.
