State assumptions before you know the outcome.
INVESTMENT THESIS JOURNAL
Capture your reasoning before a price move rewrites the memory of it. Separate the business case, evidence and uncertainty.
Make the opposing case as seriously as your own.
A research record is not a trade alert. Keep position sizing, downside and your wider financial situation in the conversation.
State assumptions before you know the outcome.
Return when the evidence changes or your review date arrives.
Keep the original scenario and add dated notes to your workspace.
Keep your research, or tell the team what you would like help exploring.
