Understanding Your Performance Analytics Report
You logged in and saw "+10%". Great! But did you take excessive risk to get it? The Analytics Tab gives you the truth.
Key Metrics Explained
1. Sharpe Ratio
The most important number. It measures Risk-Adjusted Return.
- > 1.0: Good.
- > 2.0: Excellent.
- > 3.0: Exceptional. If you have high returns but a low Sharpe (e.g., 0.5), you are just getting lucky with volatility.
2. Maximum Drawdown (MDD)
The largest drop from a peak to a trough.
- If your portfolio went from $10k -> $15k -> $9k.
- Your MDD is calculated from the peak ($15k) to the low ($9k), which is a 40% drop.
- High MDD means your strategy is risky, even if it's currently profitable.
3. Win Rate vs. Risk/Reward
A 90% Win Rate can still lose money if:
- 9 wins earn $1 each.
- 1 loss loses $10.
- Net: -$1.
Don't obsess over Win Rate. Obsess over Expectancy (Win Rate * Avg Win) - (Loss Rate * Avg Loss).
