Performance Metrics

Understanding the three rows of key performance indicators on the dashboard

The top section of the Dashboard features three rows of metric cards that give you a comprehensive snapshot of your trading performance. Each card includes a value, a label, and hover tooltips with additional context.

Row 1: Totals and Dollar Values

The first row shows your headline performance numbers:

  • Total P/L -- Your cumulative profit or loss in dollars.
  • Total P/L % -- Your cumulative profit or loss as a percentage of starting balance.
  • Average Win -- Average dollar amount of your winning trades.
  • Average Loss -- Average dollar amount of your losing trades.
  • Largest Win -- Your single biggest winning trade.
  • Largest Loss -- Your single biggest losing trade.
  • Win Rate -- Percentage of trades that ended in profit.
  • Profit Factor -- Total gross profit divided by total gross loss. Above 1.0 means profitable overall.

Row 2: Current and R Values

  • Current P/L -- Profit or loss including open positions, in dollars.
  • Current P/L % -- The same figure expressed as a percentage.
  • Average R per Win / Average R per Loss -- Your average reward and risk per trade in R-multiples.
  • Best Win (R) / Worst Loss (R) -- Your largest win and loss measured in R.
  • Total R -- The sum of all your R-multiples.
  • Average Daily Gain -- Your average profit or loss per trading day.
On stock accounts, the R-multiple cards in Row 2 are replaced with percentage-return metrics (average win/loss return, largest win/loss return, and total return).

Row 3: Streaks, Days, and Drawdown

  • Consecutive Wins -- Your longest run of winning trades.
  • Consecutive Losses -- Your longest run of losing trades.
  • Best Day / Worst Day -- Your most and least profitable single day.
  • Max Drawdown -- The largest peak-to-trough decline in your equity, shown as a percentage.
  • Average Duration -- How long your trades are held on average.
  • Avg Trades/Day -- Your average number of trades per active trading day.
  • Trading Days -- Days you traded out of total days in the period.
Hover over any metric card to see a tooltip explaining what the metric means and how it is calculated. Some tooltips add extra context, like the win/loss counts behind a figure.
