Dashboard Overview

Understand your trading performance with ForgeEdge analytics and key metrics.

Your Trading Dashboard

The dashboard gives you a bird's-eye view of your trading performance. It answers the critical question: "Am I actually winning?"

Key Metrics

Win Rate

Percentage of trades that are profitable. A 50% win rate is respectable if you have good risk-to-reward. A 40% win rate can be highly profitable with 1:2 ratios.

Total P&L

Your total profit or loss across all trades. The number that matters most.

Profit Factor

Gross profit divided by gross loss. A ratio above 2.0 is excellent. Below 1.5 is struggling.

Average R:R

Your average reward for every unit of risk. If you risk $100 and make $150 on average, that's a 1:1.5 ratio.

Max Drawdown

Your largest peak-to-trough decline in your equity. Know how much pain you can handle.

Sharpe Ratio

How much return you're getting per unit of risk. Higher is better.

Time Periods

View your stats for:

  • This week
  • This month
  • This quarter
  • This year
  • All time

Equity Curve

Your equity curve visualizes your account growth (or decline) over time. Look for:

  • Consistent uptrend — You're winning
  • Flat periods — You're in a slump, time to review
  • Sharp drawdowns — Risk management broke, investigate
  • Smooth curve — Your strategy is stable

Filtering

Filter your analytics by:

  • Trading style (day, swing, long-term)
  • Asset class (stocks, forex, crypto)
  • Setup type
  • Timeframe
  • Date range

This helps you understand which parts of your strategy are working.

When to Trust Your Dashboard

You need at least 30-50 trades for statistics to be meaningful. Before that, you're just gathering data.
