How it works
Log it. Review it. Fix it.
Every trade runs through the same loop: log the position, review the strategy, note your state of mind, check your rules. Enter trades by hand or import them from Interactive Brokers.
Log multi-leg trades as one position.
Iron condors, verticals and strangles go in as one trade with all their legs. Rolls stay linked to the position they came from, and your stock trades sit right next to your options.
See which strategies actually pay.
The dashboard splits your results by strategy. Find the setups that carry your account and the ones that quietly drain it.
Keep your mindset next to your trades.
Tag each trade with how you felt and add notes, on winners and losers alike. When you review a losing streak, the mindset behind it is right there.
Check your rules before the trade, not after.
Run through your pre-trade checklist as you log each trade, and every trade shows which rules you followed and which you skipped.
Try it on your own trades.
Start with your next trade, or bring in your history from Interactive Brokers and see your strategies side by side.

The problem
Your plan is fine. Sticking to it is the hard part.
Often the strategy isn't the issue. The gap between your plan and the trade you actually placed is. A journal only closes that gap if it records both.The plan drifts
You had a plan. Then the market moved, and the plan moved with it. Without a record, every quick decision feels justified in the moment.
Every setup looks the same
A setup can pay in one market and bleed in the next. Until your results are split by strategy, a good trade and a lucky one look alike.
Data instead of gut feel
Record the trade and the mindset behind it, spot the pattern, then change it. Your own data is harder to argue with than a hunch.
What a journal pays back
One strategy is eating the profit of the others.
Your broker shows one P&L line. Split by strategy, the leak is obvious, and so is the fix.

Who builds it
Built by options traders, not brokers.
By traders, for traders
We still trade options ourselves. MindTrajour is the journal we wanted before we built it.
No signals. No guru.
We won't tell you when to buy. We show you why your entries and exits look the way they do.
Grounded in behavioural research
Overconfidence and loss aversion are well-documented trading biases. MindTrajour keeps your mindset next to your results so you can check yourself.

The longer you wait to log a trade, the more your brain rewrites the reason why you took it. Discover how rapid logging kills hindsight bias.
Most options traders fail not because of bad Greeks, but because of poor emotional management during a trade's lifecycle.
