I started journaling my trades with screenshots instead of notes huge difference

I’ve always struggled with keeping clean trade journals. Text notes never captured why I took a trade.

Lately I’ve been saving screenshots of my charts and breaking down structure, entries, and mistakes directly from the image. It’s helped me spot repeating errors way faster.

I ended up putting the workflow into a simple tool that:

• takes a chart screenshot

• helps organize structure/levels/notes

• keeps everything in one place

No signals, no automation just analysis and journaling.

Curious if anyone else journals this way or relies more on screenshots vs written notes.
