The journal that grades the decision,
not just the result.

TradeShaper helps options traders shape every idea before entry and journal every decision — including the trades they passed on. At launch, the hindsight grading surfaces where you left money on the table, where you got out just in time, and where your stop discipline broke.

Hindsight Verdictat launch

Every closed trade is graded — left, saved, overheld, full ride, or no stop. See exactly how your decisions compared to what you would have made on autopilot.

Passed Hindsightat launch

Track every trade you analyzed but didn't take. Weeks later, see which passes were disciplined — and which ones missed real winners. The discipline metric every other journal misses.

Pre-Trade Compare

Compare three SHAPE plans side by side before you pull the trigger. Risk, reward, R-multiple, breakeven, bucket impact — all visible at once.

Strategy Match

Drop a chart screenshot or paste your readouts. We score every encoded strategy against your current setup and rank what fits.

Why I'm building this

I'm a trader, not a startup — over ten years in options. I traded day and 0DTE setups for years before swing trading and backtesting turned out to be the far better fit for how I actually operate. That's when I was fortunate to find CML — their team, their methods, and their backtesting.

Those strategies gave me solid ideas to trade. What I didn't have was a clear picture of my own side of it: which strategies I chose, why I chose them, and how well I actually managed each one once it was live.

I wanted a journaling process that fit my daily trading routine, not one I'd abandon after a week. So I built it: it brings in the strategies I was already testing on TradeMachine — and lets you encode your own — then tracks the two things I most wanted to see: whether the idea was sound, and whether I followed the plan I set at entry. That's the truth about both the setup and the trader.

Better planning, better feedback, better results.

It's early and I'm building it in the open. If you've got good strategies but want a sharper read on how you're executing them, come shape it with me.
