Standing order, explained
A standing order is a one-line rule about a habit that has cost you more than once. On Pro, when Iris spots that leak in your closed trades she drafts one under your letter on Reflect; you keep it, rewrite it or leave it. Today she reads for one pattern, revenge trading after a loss. Once kept, your rule is quoted back to you on any later trade that trips the same pattern, and your kept-word rate shows how often you honoured it. It’s your commitment to make, never the product’s advice — a mirror, never a pre-trade alarm.
A worked example
After a string of same-day revenge trades, you write: “I don’t open a new position the same day I take a loss.”
Where standing order shows up in a journal
A trading journal is where this stops being a definition and becomes your own number. sizeforzero computes it from the trades you import or log, alongside the rest of your analytics vocabulary, and every figure in the app carries an (i) that explains it in the same plain English you just read.
