Your First Reflection

A detailed walkthrough of completing your first AI-guided reflection session.

Before You Start

For the best experience, have at least one trade logged before starting your reflection. The AI uses your trades as context for the conversation.

No trades? The AI can still help you reflect on your mindset and preparation.

Have a Conversation

The AI coach will greet you and ask about your trading day. Respond naturally — there's no wrong answer.

"Hey, I see you took 3 trades today on EURUSD. How are you feeling about how things went?"
Example response: "Pretty good actually. The first two went well, but I got impatient on the third one and entered too early. Ended up getting stopped out."

The AI will ask follow-up questions to help you dig deeper into your decisions and emotions.

  • Lessons — Key takeaways categorized by type
  • Summary — A concise overview of your session
