"Manage your emotions" is advice, not a measurement. Kyra turns the feeling into data: you record the state you were in when you took the trade, and the engine tells you which states quietly cost you — with the sample size to back it.
Log the state
One tap at entry, from a fixed vocabulary. No free text, no slider, no "rate your mood" — just the state you were in.
Let the engine judge
Kyra compares your outcomes across states and surfaces the ones that move your win rate, each with the number of trades behind it.
A fixed, neutral vocabulary
Calm, Focused, FOMO, Hyped, Anxious, Frustrated, Confident, or Bored.
A consistent set is what makes comparison possible. "Frustrated" means the same thing across 200 trades, so the engine can tell whether it costs you.
The labels describe a state, not a verdict. You are a reliable reporter of how you felt — and an unreliable judge of what it did to your results.
Detected, not self-diagnosed
Some journals ask you to label the mistake at log time — "was this a FOMO entry? a revenge trade?" The trader who just took a loss is the worst person to answer. Kyra asks only for the neutral state and lets the statistics find the pattern, so the data you analyze isn't a verdict you talked yourself into. The longer argument is in what "AI" should mean in a trading journal; the practical how-to is in how to track your trading emotions.
What it surfaces
Your most expensive feeling, in numbers. Kyra reads your outcomes against the state you logged and surfaces where one runs above or below your baseline — the edge your focused trades carry, the give-back your FOMO entries cost — each with a sample size and an uncertainty range that narrows as more relevant trades accumulate. It is the inverse of generic advice: not "stay calm," but "your anxious trades returned this much less than your baseline, across this many trades."
