Weekly Review Scorecard: A Simple System That Improves Results

If you only review your trades when you lose, you are running on emotion. A weekly scorecard creates a steady feedback loop and keeps your process honest. It is the fastest way to find hidden leaks in execution.

What to measure

Choose metrics that reflect discipline, not just outcomes. Here is a simple starting list:

Checklist completion rate.
Risk per trade consistency.
Number of rule breaks.
Number of A+ setups only.
Journal completeness.

How to score it

Give each metric a target and a score. Example:

Checklist completion: target 90%, score 88%.
Risk per trade: target 1%, score 0.9%.
Rule breaks: target 0, score 2.

Turn the scorecard into action

Pick one metric to improve next week.
Create a small rule to fix it.
Review again in seven days.

Why this works

Markets change, but discipline is controllable. A weekly scorecard moves you away from emotion and toward a stable routine. Over time, that is how edge turns into performance.
