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 most important performance metrics, so you can monitor the health and profitability of your strategy at a glance.
The values on the dashboard are color-coded to indicate performance, with positive results shown in green and negative results in red, for immediate visual assessment.
Performance metrics displayed#
The dashboard presents the following key performance indicators:
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
| Net Profit % | The total profit or loss of the strategy, shown as a percentage of the initial capital. |
| Total Trades | The 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 Factor | The 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 and usage#
- Quick performance checks: Use the dashboard for a fast, easy 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 spot strong or weak areas of your strategy's performance. Green indicates positive results, while 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.
