Overview#

The Dashboard is an optional display on your TradingView chart that shows how your strategy is performing in real-time, with key numbers and statistics. It gives you a quick, scannable overview of the main performance metrics, so you can monitor your strategy at a glance.

The values on the dashboard are color-coded to show performance. Positive results appear in green and negative results in red, for immediate visual assessment.

Performance Metrics Displayed#

The dashboard presents the following key performance indicators:

MetricDescription
Net Profit %The total profit or loss of the strategy, shown as a percentage of the initial capital.
Total TradesThe total number of trades that have been completed (both winners and losers).
Win Rate %The percentage of trades that were profitable out of the total number of trades.
Profit FactorThe ratio of gross profit to gross loss. A value greater than 1 indicates a profitable strategy.
Max Drawdown %The ratio of gross profit to gross loss. A value greater than 1 indicates a profitable strategy.

Best Practices & Usage#

  • Quick performance checks: use the dashboard for a fast way to see how your strategy is performing without opening the full Strategy Tester report.
  • Use colors as a guide: the color-coded metrics help you quickly spot strong or weak areas of your strategy. Green shows positive results, red highlights areas that may need attention.
  • Compare with full reports: for a more detailed analysis, compare the dashboard's summary with the data in TradingView's Strategy Tester report.
