Maximizing Results with the "Win Rate by Category" Widget
Hey traders! π
Letβs dive into how you can use the "Win Rate by Category" widget in the TMM journal to spot and eliminate losing trade categories. This tool helps optimize strategies and improve overall performance.
Why Use the "Win Rate by Category" Widget?
This widget breaks down your trades by category, helping you understand which types of trades work best and which ones drain your profits.
How to Use the Widget Effectively
1οΈβ£ Set Up Trade Categories
Define categories for your trades, like different strategies, assets, or any parameters that matter to you.
Examples:
- News trading
- Technical analysis
- Longs
- Shorts
2οΈβ£ Add the Widget
In the TMM "Summary" section, add the "Win Rate by Category" widget to your dashboard and configure it to display your selected categories.
3οΈβ£ Analyze the Data
Look at which categories have a high win rate and which ones donβt. The widget reveals where youβre thriving and where youβre struggling.
4οΈβ£ Adjust Your Strategies
If certain categories are consistently losing, consider cutting them or revising your approach. For instance, if news trades are a drag, maybe itβs time to shift focus elsewhere.
5οΈβ£ Optimize Capital Allocation
Redirect resources to your winning categories. If technical analysis trades are killing it, allocate more capital there.
6οΈβ£ Regularly Review Categories
Trading is fluid, so what works today might not tomorrow. Regularly revisit your categories and results to adapt to market shifts.
