Habit Tracker

Track a handful of trading process habits across the last seven days and see your completion rate for each — because consistency, not intensity, builds a trading edge.

Quick answer: The habit tracker lets you list a few process habits — journal every trade, review the plan pre-market, no trades before the checklist, stop at the daily loss limit — and mark them done across the last seven days on a simple grid. It then shows a completion percentage for each habit and an overall summary. Habits form through repetition, so measuring the behaviour you can control, rather than the P&L you cannot, keeps you focused on the inputs that actually compound. Your grid can optionally be remembered privately in this browser via localStorage; it never leaves your device.

How to use it

Type a few habits, one per line, and press Build 7-day grid to get a checkbox for each habit across Day 1 to Day 7. Tick the days you completed each habit; the completion rate and overall summary update instantly. Tick Remember on this device to keep the grid in this browser's private storage between visits — it is stored only locally and is never uploaded. Aim for a high rate on a small number of habits rather than a long list you cannot sustain.

Frequently asked questions

Why track habits instead of profit and loss?
P&L is noisy and largely outside your control on any given day, so chasing it invites emotional decisions. Process habits are fully controllable and, done repeatedly, are what produce consistent behaviour. Measuring inputs keeps your attention where you actually have leverage.
How many habits should I track?
A few — three to five is plenty. Habit research consistently shows that focusing on a small number of concrete behaviours beats spreading effort across a long list you abandon within a week. You can always add one once the first few are automatic.
Where is my data stored?
By default, nowhere persistent — the grid lives in the page until you reload. If you tick Remember on this device, it is saved in your browser's localStorage on this device only. It is never sent to any server, and clearing your browser data removes it.
What counts as a good completion rate?
Consistency matters more than perfection; a habit done most days is already reshaping behaviour. Rather than fixating on a number, watch the trend and treat a missed day as information, not failure — ask what got in the way and remove that obstacle.
Why only seven days?
A rolling week is short enough to stay honest and act on, and long enough to reveal a pattern. For longer-term tracking, export or copy your weekly results into your journal and start a fresh week.
Do habits guarantee I will make money?
No. Good habits improve the consistency and quality of your trading process, which stacks the odds in your favour over time. They cannot control the market or promise profit; they make you the kind of trader who can act on an edge when one exists.
