What Will You Do Differently Next Year?
A quick reminder!
The US stock market closes at 1 pm EST today, stays closed on Christmas Day and is back open on Boxing Day.
So, it’s a good time to perhaps reflect on this question…
What will you do differently next year?
Because, If 2024 didn’t go as planned, that’s okay, now’s the time to reflect and refine.
Here’s a simple framework that might help:
FRAMEWORK
1. What worked?
- Did you stick to your edge?
- Were there strategies or setups that worked?
- Did you find a routine that kept you disciplined and focused?
Double down on those.
2. What didn’t?
- Did you overtrade?
- Ignore your risk management rules?
- Let emotions drive your decisions?
Find a way to cut those habits fast
3. What’s your #1 goal for 2025?
It could be:
- Executing your edge with 100% discipline.
- Improving your consistency by journaling every trade.
- Taking fewer, higher-quality trades.
Whatever it is, keep it simple and specific.
Remember: success in trading isn’t about chasing perfection. It’s about incremental progress.
