Covered calls and buy-sell journals are useful when they track decisions

A covered-call journal can teach a lot if it records why the strike was chosen, what happened to implied volatility, and whether assignment risk was acceptable. The same applies to buy and sell journals. The value is not just listing trades; it is explaining the decision and reviewing whether it matched the plan.
