Journal columns that matter for R:R work

A useful journal for this craft needs fewer adjectives and more columns:

  1. Instrument and direction
  2. Planned stop and planned target
  3. Planned R at entry
  4. Realised R at exit
  5. Exit reason (stop, target, time, discretion)
  6. One sentence on whether discretion violated the plan

Colour-code discretion exits that improved R versus those that cut winners early. Patterns appear within a fortnight. Bring that sheet to a Trade Journal Clinic if you want a second pair of eyes on the columns themselves.
