What is the Performance Score?

A 0–100 score built from four components worth 25 each — win rate, profit factor, consistency and drawdown.

It exists so there is one number to watch that is harder to fool than P&L. Each component is scored against a fixed benchmark rather than against your own history, so the score means the same thing in January as it does in June.

• Win rate35% scores nothing and 65% or better scores the full 25, sliding between.
• Profit factor1.0 scores nothing, 2.5 or better scores the full 25.
• ConsistencyThe share of your trading days that are green. Under 30% scores nothing, 70% or better scores the full 25.
• DrawdownYour maximum drawdown as a share of gross P&L. No drawdown scores the full 25, and a drawdown equal to your gross scores nothing.

The four are shown beside the score as 23/25, 25/25 and so on, which is the useful part: a score of 70 made of four 17s is a different trader from a 70 made of three 25s and a 0. The low component is the thing to work on.

There is a research icon on the scorecard that opens the full methodology.
