Trading analytics

Analytics here means ratios computed from the fills you logged. If the log is wrong, the ratios are wrong. That is the whole contract.

What gets computed

Reports include daily P&L, cumulative equity for the sprint, volume, win rate, largest win/loss, average trade, consecutive wins/losses, scratch trades, and P&L standard deviation.

  • Profit factor — gross profits divided by gross losses.
  • SQN (System Quality Number) — Van Tharp’s ratio of expectancy to the standard deviation of trade results, scaled by square-root of N.
  • Kelly % — a sizing hint from win rate and payoff; not a mandate to lever up.
  • K-ratio — a slope-stability read on the equity curve.

How to use it

Use the numbers to kill a book that is leaking, not to decorate a screenshot. Sample size is printed. Thin books lie.

FAQ

Are these live broker analytics?

No. They are computed from the journal, after you enter fills.
