The Journal

Everything stays on the record.

Ideas before I buy. Positions after I buy. Wins without chest-thumping. Losses without deleting the evidence. Every meaningful entry carries a date, status, ticker/topic and a permanent update trail.

How entries are built

One thought. One permanent trail.

1. CaptureRaw thought, ticker, question, trade idea or reaction—before it gets polished.
2. RecordDate/time, status, thesis, failure condition, evidence and Convergence score when relevant.
3. UpdateNew evidence creates a new timestamp. The original entry is never rewritten out of existence.
Journal rule

I don’t want a highlight reel.

When real positions begin appearing here, the original thesis stays visible. Updates will be appended or linked rather than rewriting history. If an idea fails, the post-mortem belongs beside the winner.
