Notebook habits that stick after a structure workshop
Three review prompts we ask every participant to complete before the next open.
After a workshop, energy is high and notes are messy. We ask every participant to complete three prompts before the next open: What was the agreed bias? Which swing labels are still provisional? Where did your private marks disagree with the room?
Those three lines fit on one notebook page. They matter more than rewriting every level. Traders who return for a Private Chart Review usually bring this page; it shows us where language drifted during the week.
Keep the copper lamp on, keep the page short, and treat the notebook as a record of decisions rather than a scrapbook of every line you ever drew.
