End-of-day review in fifteen minutes: three screenshots and one sentence each

[Fairman]

My end-of-day review used to take an hour, which meant that on a bad day it didn't happen. Now it takes fifteen minutes and happens every day, because I cut it down to three screenshots and one sentence each.

## The three screenshots
1. Best-executed trade. Not the biggest winner. The trade where I followed my rails most cleanly, win or lose.
2. Worst-executed trade. The one where I broke a rule, even if it made money.
3. One skipped setup, with a sentence on why I passed and whether that was right.

Each screenshot shows the entry, the stop, the exit and the ET time stamps, and I mark them on the chart. Under each goes exactly one sentence. If I need a paragraph, I'm telling a story instead of reviewing.

## Rails
- Timer set to 15 minutes. When it rings, the review is finished.
- Screenshots go into a dated folder: YYYY-MM-DD_best, _worst, _skip.
- The worst-executed sentence has to name the rule I broke, using the wording from my playbook.
- On Sunday I read the week's five "worst" sentences in a row. If the same rule shows up three or more times, it becomes Monday's single focus.

## Worked example (illustrative)
Best: 09:52 ET, bought a VWAP reclaim at 31.44, stop 31.33, sold half at 31.62 and half at 31.55. Sentence: "Waited for the 1-minute close above VWAP as written; exits followed the plan."

Worst: 10:36 ET, bought 31.80 with no pullback, stop 31.68, sold 31.86. Sentence: "Broke 'no entry more than 20 cents from the level'; the +6 cents doesn't fix that."

Skip: 11:10 ET, a flag on the 1-minute that looked good, but the spread was 4 cents on a name where my cap is 3. Sentence: "Correct skip; spread over cap."

## Failure modes
- Picking the biggest winner as "best," which rewards luck.
- Skipping the worst screenshot on green days.
- Writing sentences about the market ("it was choppy") instead of about my behavior.

## When to skip (the review)
- I never skip it entirely. On a day with no trades, I still do the skip screenshot and one sentence about why I stayed flat.
- If I'm upset after a loss, I take a walk first and then start the 15-minute timer, but I still do it that evening.
