Identify your top emotional triggers
Start by tagging emotions after each trade. You cannot fix what you cannot see. Once patterns appear, they become manageable.
Build a pre-trade reset routine
A 60-second reset lowers impulsivity. This could be a breathing cycle, a checklist, or a pre-trade prompt inside your workflow.
Use guardrails for high-volatility moments
News events and volatile sessions increase emotional intensity. Reduce size and require higher-quality setups.
Turn emotional data into analytics
When emotions are logged consistently, you can measure their impact. ClearEntry highlights emotion-to-outcome patterns so you can fix execution drift.
Schedule weekly reflection
A weekly reflection prevents emotional buildup. Review your strongest triggers and set one behavioral goal for the next week.
