Data collect

Tag your trades. Let the numbers decide.

You trade without a fixed strategy and note what you saw on every entry. Once the sample is large enough, you know which confluences actually help you.

At least one tag per trade · Readable from 10 trades · Results in R
Why it's hard

Your memory lies to you kindly.

“I remember my good trades.”A setup that won four times looks like a winner. You've forgotten the six times it lost.
“I have ten entry rules.”You no longer know which ones count, so you apply all of them, or none.
“I write it down in a spreadsheet.”When you remember, by hand, after the fact. The sample is full of holes before it's ever used.
During the session

You tag as you enter.

In Data collect mode, the trade only goes through with at least one tag. That's what makes your sample complete, and so readable.

  • At least one tag
  • Your own tags
  • Several tags per trade
  • Nothing to re-enter later

Three ways to read your data.

01By tagEach confluence, on its own: its number of trades, its win rate, its average R.
02By combinationWhat several tags placed together on the same trade give.
03By contextBy pair, direction, day, hour, market session or timeframe.

Without being fooled

Six markers to read it right.

When you look at many groups at once, some look profitable by pure chance. The screen runs no statistical test: it shows what is measured, and says what isn't.

A 10-trade thresholdBelow it, the cell stays grey, marked “sample too small”.
Results in RRelative to the risk of your initial stop, on the trades that have one. Dollars stay readable alongside.
More confluences, better trades?One bar per number of tags on the trade: 1, 2, 3, 4 and more. You see whether waiting for one more confirmation pays.
A gap, not a proofEach confluence is compared with the trades in the same scope that don't carry it. No significance test: a lead, not a verdict.
Combinations tooTwo tags together read like one tag, at the same threshold. Without a combination that is both well-filled and winning, nothing is highlighted.
A clear scopeOnly your data collect sessions are read. Your strategy tests don't get mixed in.
Two modes, two questions

Data collect or Strategy test?

The first searches, the second checks. You go from one to the other.

Data collect

The question
What works for me?
What you're asked for
At least one tag per trade.
What you get
Your confluences, ranked by what they bring in.
When to use it
As long as you don't have fixed rules.

Strategy test

The question
Do my rules hold up, and do I follow them?
What you're asked for
Rules written before playing. No tags.
What you get
Your profitability, your rule adherence, your runs compared.
When to use it
As soon as data collect has given you a lead to check.
What it changes

You stop guessing.

01Fewer rules

You keep the confluences that hold up and drop the rest.

02A complete journal

Every trade carries its tags: nothing is noted after the fact.

03Honest doubt

You also know when you don't yet have enough to conclude.

04A lead to test

You move to Strategy test with an idea, not a hunch.

Questions

About data collect.

What is a confluence?

A reason to enter that you can name: a break of structure, a zone, a session. You create your own tags.

How many trades before you can read a tag?

At least ten. Below that, the cell stays grey. This threshold is set in advance and only looks at the number of trades, never their result.

Is a tag at the top of the table a “winner”?

No. The screen compares averages, with no significance test: with many tags, some look profitable by pure chance. It's a lead to check in Strategy test, not a guarantee.

Why do some R cells stay grey?

A result in R needs an initial stop. It is computed on the trades that have one: if there are fewer than ten, the cell stays grey, even if the row has enough trades. Dollars stay readable.

Can I tag a trade in Strategy test?

No, tags aren't allowed there. This mode answers another question: did you follow your rules?
