Re: Holding Yourself Accountable

I just saw this thread and am interested in holding myself accountable not just to myself (without any excuses) but also to my fellow traders here at TL. I like the idea of a spreadsheet which would list all of my trades and would distinguish between planned and emotional trades and missed trades (trades I should have taken in accordance with my methodology but which I didn't take because of fear of being stopped out etc).

In regards to Soultrader's questions #3, I reckon this system would have to rely on our honesty if we do not want to explain our individual trading plans in detail... and since this is something I would want to do to improve my results, if I post inaccurate results I only end up cheating myself.

I think James can mediate and introduce members since he's the most involved founder of any forums I've known.
