Screenshotting And Annotating Your Charts
A 1-minute lesson from the MarketPro academy, one of 14 in trade journaling and review.
Numbers alone don't always explain why a trade worked or failed — the visual context of the chart at the moment of entry and exit often tells the real story. Saving annotated screenshots turns your journal into a visual archive you can study later.

A useful chart screenshot typically includes the entry point, stop loss, and target marked directly on the price action, along with any indicators or drawn levels (support, resistance, trendlines) that influenced the decision. Taking a second screenshot at the exit lets you compare what you expected against what actually happened.
