Default Keeping a journal

What Ive been doing is taking a screen shot when I enter a trade and saving it to a separate folder on my harddrive. Then, in notepad, I comment why I took the trade. Later when the trade is finished, I take another screen shot and update the notepad file with the results. This way I have a before & after picture. Sometimes I'll do this if I'm unsure about a trade and didn't enter, but still curious if it would have worked out. I try to name the screen shots and txt files the same using yymmdd.time.pair for a naming convention ie 080826.1500.eurusd.bmp & same for the txt file
