Cool-down steps
The cool-down is the post-session ritual that closes the day deliberately. Tomorrow's warm-up doesn't unlock until it's done. Like the warm-up, it's a library of steps you choose from — configured in Settings → Cool Down or the full-screen editor — and this page explains what each does and why.
Skipping the close is how yesterday's drawdown quietly inflates today's size. The cool-down forces a punctuation mark on the session so the next one starts from zero. Throughout, it leads with process — rule adherence, execution grade, R — and treats raw P&L as secondary, on purpose: the number you can't control shouldn't be the last thing you see.
Decompressing
Welcome Slide
The opening screen that begins the wind-down — date, time, and a line to mark that trading is over for the day.
Endings need a threshold as much as beginnings do. An explicit "the session is closing now" cue lets your brain release the heightened, scanning-for-setups state instead of carrying it into your evening.
Meditation Timer
A guided pause to decompress — breathing-glow, chimes, and a before/after settle read. Post-session it's not a forced wait: you can end early once you've settled.
The session leaves your nervous system activated whether you won or lost. A few minutes of focused attention brings the sympathetic response back down, so the day's charge discharges here rather than at the dinner table.
Breathing Exercise
A guided breathing protocol to down-regulate after the session — settle the body before you log off.
Paced breathing is the quickest physiological off-ramp from an activated state. Doing it deliberately at the close trains the boundary between "trading" and "done", so the adrenaline of a fast session doesn't follow you for hours.
Timer
A simple countdown for a deliberate pause — no audio, no capture. Just step away from the screen.
Sometimes the right close is the plainest one: stand up, stretch, hydrate. A bounded break creates physical distance from the platform, which is often all it takes to break the "one more trade" pull.
Reviewing the session
How You Executed
The process-first review — execution-grade distribution, rule adherence, and your own notes. Net R is the one number shown here; raw P&L is deliberately absent.
Grade measures how you traded, not whether you won — an A-grade losing trade is good process and bad luck; a D-grade winner is luck papering over indiscipline. Leading the review with execution rather than money is what keeps the feedback loop pointed at the part you actually control.
The Numbers
The outcome scoreboard — Net R, win rate, trades, and P&L — explicitly framed as secondary to how you executed.
Outcome still matters; it's just not the first thing you should anchor on. Putting the numbers behind the process review prevents a good day from validating sloppy execution and a bad day from condemning good execution.
Readiness vs Outcome
Reconciles this morning's readiness call against how the session actually went — "planned at restricted on short sleep, broke zero rules."
This closes the loop between your warm-up and your result, and that's how the readiness signal earns your trust. Over time you learn your relationship between state and discipline — which is far more useful than any generic rule about sleep or mood.
Review Your Trades
Finish and review today's trades — grade or tag anything still missing a grade, a playbook, or flagged as a rule-break — then see the full list.
Untagged trades are invisible to every pattern Kaxse could surface later. Closing the data here, while the trades are fresh, is what makes the analytics honest — and the act of grading each one is itself a small, deliberate audit of the day.
Playbook Performance
Did you trade your edge today? The setups you used, shown with their account-wide average R and clean-rate — process, not today's P&L.
A losing day on your A+ setups is a fundamentally different problem from a winning day on trades you should never have taken. Seeing which playbooks you actually ran tells you whether to trust the process or tighten your selection.
Behavioural patterns
Pattern Check
Confirm or dismiss the behavioural patterns Kaxse detected in today's trades. What you confirm feeds tomorrow's warm-up prep.
Self-detection is the engine of behaviour change: you can't correct a pattern you won't name. Reviewing it the same day, while the trades are vivid, makes the honest call easier — and confirming it is what wires the adaptive Mindset Check-In to catch you earlier next time.
Pattern Trends
Your most-frequent confirmed patterns over the last 30 days — the longitudinal view behind today's single-session check.
One revenge trade is an incident; revenge trading four times this month, usually after a loss, is a pattern with a trigger. Seeing the trend over weeks reveals the recurring tape you can't spot one day at a time — and names the exact situation to guard against.
State Trajectory
A read-only look at today's emotional state versus your usual session opens, plus the warm-up → cool-down shift.
Where you tend to start matters more than any single day. Watching your state trajectory over time surfaces drift — creeping anxiety, flattening engagement — before it shows up as a string of bad trades.
Reflecting
Emotional Check-In
Rate your emotional state now the session's over, compared against your pre-session read.
The before/after delta is the insight. Noticing that you came in calm and left agitated — or vice versa — connects how you felt to how you traded, which is the awareness that lets you catch the same drift earlier tomorrow.
Journal Prompt
Guided journalling with today's data pre-populated — best trade, rule deviations, what you'd change — on a short timer, saved to your journal.
Writing forces specificity that thinking glosses over. Reflective journalling is one of the best-evidenced tools for deliberate improvement: articulating why a trade worked or failed turns a day of screen time into a lesson you can actually reuse.
Positive Reinforcement
A short message acknowledging your effort — including on hard days — alongside the day's process stats.
Discipline is a behaviour, and behaviours strengthen with acknowledgement. Recognising process effort regardless of the P&L is what keeps you doing the right things through a losing stretch — when outcome-based motivation would have you abandon them.
Non-Negotiables Review
Reflect on whether you held today's non-negotiables — the cool-down mirror of the commitments you set in your warm-up.
Commitments without a review quietly erode. Checking back on them closes the accountability loop: it's the difference between non-negotiables you aspire to and ones you actually keep, and the honest check is what makes them real.
Lifestyle Trajectory
Today's foundations shown alongside a 7- and 30-day trend of readiness, foundations, and sleep — because tonight shapes tomorrow.
Performance is downstream of how you live, and that link is invisible in any single day. Seeing the trend connects last night's poor sleep to today's impulsive entries, which makes the lifestyle change feel worth it in a way an abstract "rest more" never does.
Closing forward
Tomorrow's Plan
Turn today's reflection into a commitment — your focus for tomorrow, pre-seeded from today's confirmed patterns and rule-breaks.
A lesson you don't convert into an intention evaporates overnight. Writing tomorrow's focus now, while today is fresh, is an implementation intention — the single most reliable way to make a resolution actually change behaviour.
Session Closed
A ritual acknowledgement that the session is over and you will not re-enter the market today.
The explicit "I'm done" is a commitment device against the after-hours temptation to reopen the platform and give back the day's discipline. Saying it deliberately makes the boundary real — and easier to hold when the urge comes.
Cool-Down Complete
The final screen — a closing message that adapts to how the day actually went, and the buttons to log off or open your journal.
The close should match reality, not assume a good day. Ending on an honest, process-framed note — rather than empty confetti after a loss — is what lets you log off settled and come back tomorrow ready to execute, instead of carrying the day with you.
