Give the waiting something to do, so you stop forcing trades.
Small habits, nudged at planned times when you are waiting rather than trading. Importance levels, a daily log, and a link to what your results look like on the days you did them.
Your Habits, Your Targets
List the small things that keep your head clear: push-ups, water, a walk, a watch-list check, rereading your plan. Give each an importance of high, medium or low and a number of times per day.
Nudges That Respect Your Trading
Reminders only appear on trading days during market hours, never in the first 15 minutes after the open or the last half hour, never while a trade is open or within 15 minutes of trade activity, and never inside a guard window around a major release.
Spread Out, Not Predictable
Choose a level from Off to about eight a day. Times are planned once per day, spread across the session with some randomness so they do not become background noise, and weighted slightly toward the hours where your own history shows more mistakes.
Done, Skip, Later
Mark a habit done or skipped, close it to come back to, or silence reminders for the rest of the day. An optional sound, a visible status, and a badge for reminders you have not answered keep it honest without taking over the screen.
A Log You Can Learn From
What you did is logged per day and sits at the bottom of the Calendar day panel. Coach Alpha compares days where you completed your habits with days you did not, and says so plainly when there is too little data to tell.
Lives Under the Checklist
Habits sit next to your pre-trading checklist in one box on the Calendar, so the routine before the open and the routine during the day are in one place.
