Last 30 WIN / Total
Over the entire history WIN / Total
🟩

38 WIN / 118 32.2%
🟥
Counter-trend
7 WIN / 15 46.7%
39 WIN / 134 29.1%

−1.5 ATR (full SL) 175

Timeout is not counted in winrate, since in this situation the trade did not end with reaching either TP or SL.

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.
