Reading the record back
The daily practice produces a record. These surfaces make sure it gets read again.
Sessions
Every logged day lives at Sessions — the full log, plus a detail page per day. The detail page holds that day's trades, the derived Conduct verdict and execution score, the felt states, your reflections, and any notes or images you attached. Past days can be revised; if you forgot to log something, fixing the record is always the right move, and every score recomputes when you do.
Weekly and Monthly
The weekly review shows the week as one object: execution average, clean days, what broke and when. The monthly view is a calendar heatmap — six shades from critical-violation red to clean — that makes a month of practice legible at a glance. Both are read-only mirrors. There is nothing to fill in; there is only what you did.
The Sunday letter
On Sunday, a letter arrives — from past-you. Its centerpiece is one or two reflections you wrote two to eight weeks ago: recent enough that you remember writing them, old enough that you have probably forgotten what they said. Praxis does not comment on them. It holds them up.
Around your own words, the letter assembles the week:
- an epigraph chosen to match the week's theme,
- a reading of the slow identity signal — is the practice still effortful, or becoming who you are,
- if the week held a day where repair crossed the behavioral line: how many days, what was being repaired, and what opened the door. Contained urges never appear — containment is the win, not a record of struggle,
- the week's numbers against the previous four.
If you have email reminders on, the Sunday email is only a knock on the door — the letter itself lives on the page.
Patterns
The patterns engine reads your record and speaks only when it has evidence. It stays silent until at least five sessions exist, and each detector has its own minimum sample before it gets a voice. What it looks for:
| Pattern | What it notices |
|---|---|
| Drift | Your last five sessions slipping well below — or lifting above — the twenty-five before them. |
| Sustained strength | Ten consecutive clean sessions. Strength is a pattern too. |
| The climb | A run of clean sessions right after a logged bad day. A record that falls and recovers proves more than a flat one — this read only exists because you logged the dip. |
| Trigger | Sessions that slip the day after an outsized win (a +$3,000 day followed by a red, off-process session). |
| Risk vs 1R | Your worst single loss versus your contract's planned per-trade risk (1R) — staying within it, or blowing through it. |
| Repair | The door you name most often into repair mode, and what repair-mode days do to your clean rate once there are enough of both kinds of day to compare. |
| Green-day slip | Whether your process is cleaner on losing days than on profitable ones — the green day that loosens the rules. |
| Resulting | Whether you still rated off-process days well — proud, or willing to take the trades again. Breaking your process is when an honest read of yourself matters most. |
A pattern you dismiss stays quiet for a week before it may return. The engine never speculates — every sentence it produces is backed by rows in your own record.
Lesson threads
When the same lesson keeps appearing in your reflections in different words, Praxis clusters them and shows you the thread — the same idea, surfacing again and again, with the dates attached. A lesson you have written three times is worth seeing as one.
