Yearly Performance Review:

Goals

• [ ] If you had clear goals for 2023, did you achieve them? How challenging were they?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• [ ] If you failed to meet your goals, explain why.

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• [ ] If you set no goals, why not?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

Profit & Loss

• Did you make a net profit in 2023? (Net of any expenses)

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• If you failed to make a profit in 2023, what do you believe is the single biggest reason why? E.g. No edge? Poor execution of an edge? Lacklustre effort in showing up? Poor risk management?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• Before examining your trading, consider everything else that makes up your trading business. Is there any way you can reduce costs to improve your bottom line: Eg Changing brokers to get better fills or commissions? Become more tax efficient?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

Performance

• What was your biggest win streak of 2023? (Consider both % gain streaks and number of winning trade streaks) Review the trades that comprised the streak, with the aim of working out the factors that led to this success. E.g. Did you trade in a market condition particularly conducive to your strategy such as a very clear trend? Can you think of a way in which you can increase the odds of replicating this again in 2024?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• Review the trade that broke the win streak. Do you find anything interesting? Eg. It completely broke the rules that were all present during the win streak and suggest the more you win, the less cautious you get? Does this occur during other streaks?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• What was your biggest drawdown of 2023? (Consider both % loss and number of losing trade streaks) Review the trades that comprised the streak with the aim of working out the factors that led to failure. Eg. Did you trade through a market condition such as a low volatility environment? Did a loss make you nervous enough to mismanage the following trade and the situation compounded? Can you think of a way in which this level of drawdown can be avoided in future?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• Review the trade that broke the losing streak. Do you find anything Interesting? Does this occur during other losing streaks?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

  </aside>

• When you review your trades from 2023, do you find there are consistently recurring Issues?

  <aside> <img src="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" alt="/icons/pencil_gray.svg" width="40px" />

• Was there a type of trade that did/didn't work well?

• Was there a particular day/time that you did/didn't trade well?
• Did you enter trades too soon/too late?
• Did you take profit too soon/too late?
• Were your stops too loote/too tight?
• Did you take poor/risk reward trades?
• Did you risk too much/too little?
