I SEE STOCKS

Why keep a trading journal. I See Stocks is where investors record the reasoning behind their past trades and review their own data — Korea + US stocks with filings & news matched automatically. Not investment advice.

What it is

A retrospective community,
not a tip service.

01

Public retrospective community

Every filing is past-tense. No forward predictions, no targets, no calls to action. Screenshot-native: drag in your broker screen, the platform strips EXIF, blurs dollar amounts on request, and burns a self-reported watermark.

02

No curation

Discover ranks by engagement and recency. Never by return. No leaderboards. No top-trader badges. The platform never selects, recommends, or promotes posts — moderation removes; it never features.

03

Insights groups

Private journaling rooms for the people you actually want to write retrospectives with. Invite-code joins, owner-approved members, member-leave anytime. Personal-record insights drawn only from your own posts.

What a filing looks like

Sample filings

These are illustrative examples to show the shape of a retrospective. Real filings come from real users on /discover.

Held through the AI capex spike but exited before the November earnings print — I noticed I was checking the price every 20 minutes. That alone was the signal to close the position. The thesis worked. My discipline didn't, and that's the part worth writing down.The thesis worked. My discipline didn't.

HBM 사이클을 너무 일찍 베팅했다. 1년 동안 평단 깎으려고 추가매수 3번, 모두 더 빠른 손실로 끝났다. 다음에 같은 패턴을 보면 — '평단 낮추기 위해' 들어가는 손이 신호다. 그건 분석이 아니라 회피였다.평단 낮추기는 분석이 아니라 회피였다.

3年保有してわかったのは、ニュースを読む頻度がリターンに反比例していたこと。月1回しか見なかった年がいちばん成績が良かった。次の銘柄もこのルールで持つつもり。ニュースを読む頻度はリターンに反比例した。

How it works

Four steps. No brokerage link required.

  1. Step 01

    Sign up + pick a handle

    3–20 lowercase letters, numbers, underscores. Reserved names are blocked. You can change it once.

  2. Step 02

    File a retrospective

    Pick a closed past-tense verb (bought, sold, held, added, trimmed, exited). Period ends on or before today. No price targets. No 'will go to' field.

  3. Step 03

    Discuss in comments

    Follow journalers whose reasoning you respect. Talk about why, not what to buy. The platform doesn't rank anyone by return.

  4. Step 04

    (Optional) Go Insights

    $9/mo or $79/yr. Private groups, personal-record insights drawn only from your own posts. No advice. Cancel from Stripe portal anytime.

Trading journal & review — FAQ

How do you keep a trading journal?
For each trade you record the ticker, period, and return — plus why you bought. I See Stocks uses a past-tense editor where you tag your reasons, and it automatically places the related filings and news next to the trade to aid review.
Is keeping a trading journal worth it?
Without a record it's easy to repeat the same mistakes. Seeing your own data — win rate by holding period, payoff ratio — shows which setups actually worked for you.
What should a trading journal include?
The ticker, your buy/sell timing, the return, and most importantly the reason for the trade. Adding market context and notes raises the quality of your review.
How is this different from a spreadsheet or Notion journal?
Unlike manual templates, win rate, payoff ratio and holding-period stats are computed automatically, filings and news sit next to each ticker, and Korea + US stocks live in one place.
How do I review my past trades?
Gather your closed trades in chronological order and revisit the reasoning, market context, and outcome. I See Stocks groups your retrospectives per ticker.
