House trade ideas · Public record

Every trade idea we posted, scored. Losses left in.

Each of our posted trade ideas has an entry, a stop and a target. Once price reaches the entry it counts as a trade; it closes when price hits the stop or the target. Numbers below come straight from the production database, all time.

Hypothetical result What a trade idea would have made or lost at real market prices, even though no real order was placed. More plain-English terms These are engine trade ideas scored on paper, not executed trades. Sage's real trades are a different record: every closed trade in his stock and ETF account.

In plain words: the Hit rate The share of closed trade ideas that made money. It is the same idea as a win rate. is 38.5% — that share of closed trades won. The Average win What the typical winning trade made: all the money made on winning trades, divided by the number of winning trades. More plain-English terms was +2.58R and the Average loss What the typical losing trade lost: all the money lost on losing trades, divided by the number of losing trades. More plain-English terms was −1.01R — R The amount risked on one trade idea: the distance from the entry to the stop. +2R means the idea made twice what it risked; −1R means it lost exactly what it risked. is the amount risked on the idea (entry to stop), so +1R means “gained what was risked”. The average win is 2.6× the size of the average loss. How we keep score · Where each result lives

How these numbers are counted

  • · Source: every house idea the engine posted (member-authored ideas excluded). No backfill, no edits.
  • · An idea is one setup: symbol, direction, strategy, entry, stop and target. If the engine re-posts the identical setup, it counts once (earliest post).
  • · A trade starts only when price reaches the entry (“triggered”). Ideas that never triggered are not trades.
  • · A trade closes when a 30-minute price check finds the stop or the target hit. It is scored at the stop or target price exactly — no commissions, slippage or gaps.
  • · Win = closed above zero R, loss = closed below zero R. Hit rate = wins ÷ closed trades.
  • · R = result ÷ amount risked (entry to stop), signed by direction. Average per trade = total R ÷ closed trades.
  • · Daily rows are grouped by the New York date the trade closed; the headline is their sum, all time.
  • · Hypothetical results from our trade ideas, scored against market prices. Nobody traded them. They include no commissions, slippage, or real fills and have real limitations. Past results don't predict future results. See the disclaimer.
Hypothetical · every start date

What if you had started on a different day?

Any record looks better from its best starting day. This takes every closed idea above, in close order, takes a cost off each one (default 0.05R for slippage and fees), and shows the result of every possible start date — not one picked by us. Change the amount risked per idea (default $100) to see it in dollars. Nobody traded these ideas.

Hypothetical results from our trade ideas, scored against market prices. Nobody traded them. They include no commissions, slippage, or real fills and have real limitations. Past results don't predict future results.

Hypothetical or simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, since the trades have not been executed, the results may have under- or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown.
