Hi,
when you configure Trading Framework for your trading plan, you specify the list of valid reasons for each price (entry, stop, target) and for each type of action (buy, sell, short, cover, set stop).
When you actually plan your trade or document your actions, you are presented with the appropriate list of reasons. So whenever you set a price or take an action, it is very clear when you are not following your trading plan.
This process makes it very hard to lie to yourself.
There is also the money management aspect. You specify your maximum risk per trade and the maximum share size is calculated for you. You don't just randomly pick a share size without knowing your risk.
So in summary, you plan each trade with the right share size, everything you do has a reason from your plan, plus everything you can do with comments, the journal, etc...
Of course the software does not force you to do all those things but it sure makes it hard to lie to yourself.
