\"KVW_3665\"<\/p>\n

Welcome back to our new series 30 trading habits in 30 days.<\/p>\n

This is not my idea.<\/p>\n

I co-opted it from a trader we trained from scratch to High Performing Trader. This is an excellent habit to build for your daily training as a trader.<\/p>\n

Build a book of best charts.<\/p>\n

Every time you make or spot a great setup, grab a screenshot of that chart. Mark it up. Keep it in your book of charts. Review these charts until you internalize them.<\/p>\n

The benefits? You will internalize the best setups in your trading brain so you trade these plays better and more confidently.<\/p>\n

Here is a chart to grab, mark up, save and review from today of UVE holding the trendline on multiple time frames- 1m, 5m, 10m, 15m.<\/p>\n
