Thereò canò highlight situations in which at a particular time particularly unfavorable to one's trading; goes to affect the results obtained, the user canò then decide not to trade anymore at that time or perhaps pay more attention.

This analysis can also be done on a daily, monthly and annual basis.

Hypotetical Result

Clicking on the little wheel in the upper right è it is possible to apply money management rules to the trades made, so as to identify any mistakes made or situations that lead to deteriorating perfomance results. 

Specifically:

• Daily DD

Defines the maximum Daily Drawdown, reached which stops the session's operativeness.

• Daily Runup

Defines the maximum Daily Runup, reached which interrupts the operativityà of the session.

• Max Contracts

Defines the maximum number of contracts that can be used.

• Trade Drawdown

Defines the maximum Drawdown on the individual trade, reached which the trade is closed.

• Trade Runup

Defines the maximum Runup on the individual trade, reached which the trade is closed.

In particular the Drawdown measures the maximum loss relative to the peak reached in a given period, if for example you set a Trade Dradown of $100 and at the opening of the position the trade goes in profit by $50 if from that peak it comes back and goes in loss by $50 you è reached a Dradown of $100 and the trade is closed.

The Runup è the opposite of the dradown and represents the maximum profit over a minimum reached in a given period.

To apply a rule enable its checkmark and indicate the value next to it. Finally, click on generate report.

In the figure below is analyzed for example the case of a maximum daily Dradown of 100$ and as you canò notice from the Balance the situation would be improved, a sign of how in such a situation when you reach that drawdown limit you struggle to recover, so better to close the trading session.
