3.4Trading profile (hexagon)
What is it? Six real metrics as a hexagon: return on the right (win rate, reward-to-risk, profit factor), risk on the left (consistency, drawdown control, SL usage).
What you get
- Strengths and gaps at a glance, without an overall score
- Each axis explains raw value, calculation and axis position
- Change vs. the previous 30 days
How it works
- Hover over a corner or a KPI row – both are highlighted.
- Read in the tooltip how the value and axis position are calculated.
Good to know
- Dashed or dimmed axes have too little data (“meaningful from X trades”).
- Profit factor: 1.0 sits in the middle, 2.0 and above on the edge.
- Drawdown control uses the firm's max loss, otherwise 10% of starting capital.
FAQ
- Is a full hexagon the goal?
- No. The profile describes, it doesn't rate. A low win rate can work well with a high reward-to-risk.
