90 Seconds. One Voice Note.
A Complete Review.
You close the session. You talk for 90 seconds. The AI pulls your trades, rules, and lessons. Playbook updates itself. Done before you leave the desk.
Your Journal Is Not Working
You already know what these look like:
It is 9:43 ET. Price tags VWAP and fails the first bounce. What do those notes tell you to do right now? Nothing.
Vague notes produce vague trading.
"Be patient"
Patient until when? Until VWAP holds? Until volume confirms? You will never know.
"Don't chase breakouts"
Which breakouts? OR breaks before 9:45? All of them? On what volume?
The notebook fills up. The P&L stays the same. You are journaling for the feeling of progress, not actual progress.
Built for the Post-Session Window
The 10 minutes after the close are the most honest you will be all day. TBTY captures that window before it fades.
Talk. Don't Type.
Debrief your session out loud. AI fills the fields while you talk.
No Excuse to Skip It
Three fields. 90 seconds. Done before the adrenaline wears off.
Never Start a Session Cold
Yesterday's lessons load before the open. Grade your rules after the close.
Catch Yourself Before RTH
Three checks between you and a revenge trade.
Rate your mental state before the open. Tired, tilted, distracted — the system flags it before capital is at risk.
Your plan loads every morning before the bell. No scrambling at 9:28 ET.
Did you follow your plan or freelance? The gap between intention and execution is where the edge hides.
Kill Rules That Stopped Working
Every rule gets a track record. Keep it, refine it, or retire it.
The Gaps Tell the Story
Missed days show up. Streaks compound. Your consistency is visible.
You Have Tried This Before.
And you stopped. Here is exactly why.
The Blank Page
You open the journal. You stare at it. You write "good day" and close it. No structure, no prompts, no specifics. TBTY asks the questions you skip when nobody is asking.
The Two-Week Graveyard
You kept it up for two weeks. Missed a day. Missed a week. Done. TBTY takes 90 seconds because the barrier is talking, not typing.
The Insight Graveyard
You wrote real observations. Then never read them again. TBTY loads yesterday's lesson before the open. Every review feeds tomorrow's prep.
It was never about discipline. Your journal had no system to turn tonight's notes into tomorrow's edge.
Talk Through It. That Is the Method.
This is not voice-to-text for convenience. Talking through your trades is the review.
When you say it out loud, you hear what you were actually thinking — not the cleaned-up version you would type.
You will catch yourself mid-sentence: "I shorted the OR break because... honestly I don't know why. Volume was dead." That moment — where your voice outpaces your filter — is where the real lesson lives.
You skip things when you type
Typing filters. You edit as you go. You write what sounds smart, not what actually happened. When you talk, the messy truth comes out first — and the messy truth is where the edge is.
Explaining forces understanding
Try explaining why you took a trade — out loud, like you are telling another trader. If you cannot explain it clearly, you did not have a clear reason. That is the insight. You just found it in 10 seconds instead of ignoring it in a spreadsheet.
Your voice catches your emotions
Frustration, hesitation, confidence — you hear it in your own voice. A typed "frustrated" is a label. Hearing yourself say "I just kept hitting it because I was pissed about the first stop-out" is awareness. That is the difference between logging and learning.
Structured self-talk, not free journaling
TBTY gives your voice a structure: trades, takeaway, rules, emotions, plan compliance. You talk for 90 seconds. The AI maps what you said to the right fields. You review, tweak, save. It turns self-talk into a system that compounds.
Researchers call it the self-explanation effect — explaining your reasoning out loud improves retention and decision-making. Traders call it talking through your session. Same thing. TBTY just makes sure it happens every day.
Review. Extract. Apply. Repeat.
TBTY does not tell you what to trade. It turns what you already traded into rules you can test tomorrow.
Voice-First Review
Talk through your session after the close. AI extracts trades, rules, emotions, and your key takeaway. Or type three fields manually: lesson, one rule, rating. Either way, 90 seconds.
Conditional Rules (IF/THEN)
"Don't chase" is not a rule.
That is a rule you can test, track, and kill when it stops working. Plus a State Gate and Execution Script — both fire before capital is at risk.
Living Playbook
Rules move through stages: testing → proven → retired. Plan Compliance shows whether you followed your plan or freelanced. Weekly Keep/Refine/Kill cleanup prevents a bloated playbook.
The Daily Loop
Morning Cockpit
6:15 AM. Coffee. Open the cockpit. Your Execution Script is loaded. Select which IF/THEN rules to watch today. Read yesterday's lesson. You are getting advice from the version of you who just lived through it.
Trade Your Session
9:30 ET. Bell rings. Trade your plan. TBTY does not touch your trading. It fixes your reviewing.
Quick Review
Session over. Talk through it while it is fresh. AI extracts trades, rules, takeaway, emotions. Not a talker? Type three fields: lesson, one rule, rating. Either way, 90 seconds. Done before you close the charts.
Evening Grading
After dinner. Open the cockpit. Mark each rule: Worked, Failed, or N/A. Check Plan Compliance — did you follow your plan or drift? This is how rules earn their track record. Two minutes. Then close the laptop.
Keep / Refine / Kill
Sunday. Review your rules. Keep the ones that work. Refine the ones that almost work. Kill the ones that stopped. Five minutes a week to keep a playbook that actually reflects how you trade right now.
For Active Traders Who Make Their Own Decisions
This is for you if:
- You trade any market — futures, stocks, forex, options, or crypto
- You have 6+ months of screen time and make your own trade decisions
- You keep making the same mistakes and your journal is not fixing it
- You want a repeatable process that compounds session over session
This is NOT for you if:
- You buy and hold — this is built for active, session-based trading
- You run algos, quant models, or fully mechanical systems
- You want trade signals, alerts, or someone to tell you what to trade
Not Another Trading Journal
Most journals record what happened. TBTY tells you what to do differently at 9:30 tomorrow.
This Is Not Another Analytics Dashboard
Analytics journals tell you what happened. Win rate, P&L, which setups hit. Good tools. But they don't tell you what to change tomorrow morning. TBTY picks up where the numbers stop.
- •Auto-import trades straight from your broker
- •P&L tracking, equity curves, and performance dashboards
- •Win rate, R-multiples, expectancy — all the stats
- •Tag trades by setup and filter to find what’s working
- •90-second voice note becomes a structured review with rules attached
- •IF/THEN playbook rules with lifecycle tracking — keep, refine, or kill each one weekly
- •Morning prep loads yesterday’s lessons so you trade the plan, not your mood
- •State Gate checks if you’re actually fit to trade before the 9:30 open
- •Plan Compliance scores the gap between what you planned and what you did
Plenty of traders use both. Analytics for the scoreboard. TBTY for the game plan.
Studying Charts Is Not Improving
Yesterday briefs tomorrow
Your review loads before the open. Not as a diary entry. As an instruction set for the session you are about to trade.
Awareness over accumulation
Most traders collect notes they never read. TBTY builds self-awareness. State Gate checks your head. Plan Compliance shows where intention and execution split.
Your gap-fade setup stopped working Tuesday
Setups decay when the regime shifts. Track performance by rule. When win rate drops, you see it in the data — not three red weeks later.
90 seconds compounds
One voice note per day. Five reviews per week. In 30 days you have a tested playbook built from your own sessions — not someone else's indicator pack.
Less Than One Tick on ES.
Voice review, conditional rules, playbook tracking, morning prep, state gate, plan compliance. The whole system.
No bait-and-switch. Founding price locked for life. Cancel anytime.
Process Over Personality
Twenty years of active trading. The good years, the blown accounts, and the rebuilds. Still reviewing every session. The method is public.
The method is free
The Quick Start Guide gives you the full framework. No secrets behind a paywall. Read it tonight. If it clicks, the app makes it faster.
No P&L screenshots
No income claims. No flex. I track review quality, rule specificity, and playbook compliance. The process is the product.
Dogfooded daily
This is the review system the founder uses every session. Same voice notes, same IF/THEN rules, same cockpit. If it breaks, I feel it first.
Spreadsheet-first if you want
You can run the entire system in a spreadsheet tonight. The app saves time and adds voice review, but the method works without it.
Read It Tonight. Review Tomorrow.
The TBTY Quick Start Guide
Two ideas that fix most reviews. 15 pages. No fluff. Do your first structured review tomorrow morning.
What's inside:
- -Why capturing decisions (not outcomes) changes everything
- -How to turn "don't chase" into a testable IF/THEN rule
- -Real case study: the Early Breakout Trap, before and after
- -What a failed rule looks like — and why that is more useful than a winner
Questions
No. TBTY does not tell you what to trade or when to trade it. You bring your own trades. The review system helps you extract patterns from them and turn those patterns into conditional rules you actually follow.
Built by an active trader who got tired of useless journals. The examples default to ES futures — VWAP levels, opening range timing, tick sizes — but the framework (conditional rules, playbook lifecycle, morning prep) works for any actively traded instrument with repeating short-term patterns. Futures, forex, crypto, equities, CFDs. The bones are the same.
90 seconds in voice mode — talk through your session, the AI fills the form. The full 9-section review takes 10–15 minutes right after the close. Do it while the session is fresh. Bullet points and specifics, not paragraphs.
Journals capture outcomes: green day, red day, P&L. TBTY captures decisions with conditions attached. Instead of "be more patient," you get "IF gap > 0.8% and price fades to VWAP in 15 min, THEN wait for a 5-min hold before entering long." Every review includes a Rule Check — you mark each active playbook rule as Followed, Broke, or N/A. That’s what makes the review useful tomorrow, not just a record of today. Add a State Gate before the open, a morning prep that loads your plan, and Plan Compliance scoring the gap between your plan and your behavior — and it stops being a journal.
Analytics journals answer "how did my trades perform?" TBTY answers "what do I change tomorrow morning?" They show you stats. TBTY builds you a process — structured reviews, conditional rules, pattern tracking, and a morning workflow that loads yesterday’s lessons before the open. Different tool, different job. Many traders use both.
A trader who spent years reviewing sessions and built this system from the patterns that emerged. No face, no guru brand. The Quick Start Guide is free. Read it and decide if the method makes sense to you.
Yes. Delivered immediately when you sign up. The guide teaches the full methodology. The app runs it — voice review, playbook tracking, state gate, morning prep, plan compliance. Free tier gives you 7 reviews and 3 playbook rules to try the workflow. Founding members lock in the full system at $9/month for life.
