Stick to low cost, diversified index funds and your GTG.
The journal can be 1-2 short comments in a single cell in a spreadsheet. The two points are "why I bought it" and "how I will know when it's time to sell".
Example might be: TGT getting hammered by bad press about a boycott but boycott not likely to stick. A good div stock long-term but sell when it's back up to 130.
I diddle with 1 or 2 individual stocks at a time so I'm not going to forget the thesis. But a quick note may help keep you true to your original goals. Some people forget that they wanted to sell or let a rally or hype overwhelm their numbers and good planning.

TGT UNH and TXN from last year. I do a lot of country ETFs and did great with ENORMOUS, EWW, EWZ, EWY. I got nothing from this year.

TGT was at $84 in November, but had declined over past few years. Its $130 now, but i sold early lol, at 110 or so. Ill buy again if it drops down towards $100 again at any point

We may be sharing the same retard gene. I sold NBIS CRWV at \~74-78, NFLX at $78, UNH at $284, AMZN at $200, HOOD at $74, BTC at $16k, TGT at $80, WMT at $95
