HashtagsCreating Flags

Creating Custom Flags

Add a tag, optional icon, type, and description for a new Flag.

Key takeaways

  • New flags are created at /workspace/hashtags/new under Journal → Flags.
  • Tags should stay short and dash-separated (e.g. "breakout-pullback").
  • Optional fields: icon (emoji), type for grouping, and a description.
  • Good descriptions matter - write them as a checklist for when the flag applies.

To create a new flag:

  1. Open Journal → Flags.
  2. Click New. The form opens at /workspace/hashtags/new.
  3. Pick a tag - keep it short and dash-separated, e.g. "breakout-pullback".
  4. Optionally set an icon (emoji), a type to group it with similar flags, and a description explaining when this flag applies.
  5. Save.

Good descriptions matter - six months from now you won't remember what "ms-gap" meant unless you wrote it down. Treat the description as a checklist for when to apply the flag.
