What happens after I dictate a trade — can I review before saving?

It depends on how much you said. A phrase carrying a direction or an entry price is written straight away — no review step. A bare "new trade" opens the + Trade form instead, and you check it and press the button yourself.

The split is deliberate, and knowing which side you are on is the difference between a fast log and a surprise in your journal.

"New trade short NQ 19563, three contracts" carries a side and a price, so the app takes that as a complete instruction. The trade is inserted immediately. Confirmation is visual and audible rather than a dialog: a chime plays and a toast appears at the bottom of the screen reading back what landed — side, symbol, entry, stop and target if you gave them, and the contract count. That design assumes you are watching a second screen mid-trade, where a confirmation dialog you have to dismiss would be worse than useless.

"New trade" on its own carries neither a direction nor a price, so there is nothing to insert. Rather than error, the app opens the + Trade popover, and you can keep talking to fill it in — the form takes dictation, and one sentence can fill several of its fields at once. Nothing is written until you press the button. This is the review path.

You can also end a full sentence with a commit word instead of leading with the command: "short NQ 19563, three contracts, save". Save, save it, save this, log it, log this, submit, enter, record, record it, commit and done all work — note that it is bare submit and bare enter, not "submit it". This route needs both a side and an entry price before it will fire, because without a command word at the front there is nothing else to distinguish it from ordinary dictation.

If a dictated trade lands wrong, "undo" will not help. Undo restores a field's previous value, and a trade logged this way was written to your journal rather than typed into a form — there is no field to put back. Open it in the Journal and edit or delete it like any other trade. This is the real cost of the no-review path, and the reason to say "new trade" on its own when you are not certain.
