About this course
A trading journal statistics course that analyses one synthetic 60-trade journal the way a performance coach would, for active traders, students and anyone who keeps a trade log in a spreadsheet. You turn trades into dollar results and an equity curve, measure win rate, average win and loss and the payoff ratio, combine them into expectancy per trade and the break-even win rate, express every trade as an R-multiple and count the R distribution, rate the record with the profit factor and an SQN-style score, track the running peak, the maximum drawdown and the gain needed to recover, size the next trades with fixed fractional risk and see why a Kelly fraction needs a cap, and find losing streaks and results by setup and weekday. Educational only, not investment or trading advice. The first lab is free.
