FAQ

What does winrate mean and why can it be below 50%?

Winrate is the share of signals where the price reached Take Profit before Stop Loss. With a Risk/Reward of 1:2, the breakeven point is at 33.3%, so a winrate below 50% is normal.

Why is the 95% confidence interval shown?

The 95% Wilson confidence interval shows the statistical uncertainty of the hit rate estimate for a given sample size. The more observations, the narrower the interval.

What is timeout?

Timeout is a situation where, within 100 bars, the price reached neither Take Profit nor Stop Loss. Such signals are not counted in winrate to avoid distorting the statistics.
