Reading reports

Read the report from the big picture to the exact trades behind it.

Use this order

  1. Check the portfolio.
    Compare net profit with maximum drawdown and the shape of the equity curve.
  2. Find the strongest and weakest tickers.
    Sort the ticker table by contribution, profit factor or drawdown.
  3. Check consistency.
    Compare years, months, Long and Short results.
  4. Inspect the trades.
    Look for outliers, long losing streaks and results driven by only a few trades.
  5. Export when needed.
    Save the full report as JSON or the visible trade rows as CSV.

Portfolio overview

Real PineBag portfolio overview generated from the example report
The overview combines all symbol results into one cumulative portfolio curve.

Never judge the strategy by net profit alone. Compare return, drawdown, profit factor, win rate and the equity curve together.

A high return with a deep drawdown or one dominant ticker needs more investigation.

Tickers and periods

Real PineBag ticker table and performance chart
Rank symbols and compare how the same strategy behaves across time.
1 Ticker table

Sort the columns to find the strongest, weakest and unusual tickers.

2 Period breakdown

Check years and months instead of relying on one total.

3 Direction filters

Compare All, Long and Short to see which side creates value.

4 Custom range

Focus the report on a date range without running the test again.

Performance analysis

Real PineBag profit breakdown and trade distribution
PnL by period splits realized profit from favorable and adverse excursion for each week, month, quarter or year.

Use these views to see whether the result is broad and repeatable or depends on a small group of trades.

Trades

Real PineBag performance and trades analysis
Trade distributions and the full trade table make every portfolio conclusion traceable.

Filter by ticker, direction or period. Check entry and exit time, duration, P&L and trade sequences. Outliers should be easy to explain before you trust the result.
