# Quick reference: what "good" looks like

The table below explains how to read the main figures. Where a figure is colour-coded on the live pages, the bands shown are the ones the pages use. They describe ranges, not targets.

| Metric              | Reading it                                                                                                                                                                                                        |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Account drawdown %  | Under 5% green (shallow) · 5% to under 15% amber (moderate) · 15% and over red (deep)                                                                                                                             |
| Profit Factor       | Not colour-coded. Total profit of winning grids ÷ total loss of losing grids. Under 1.0 the grids lost more than they made · 1.0 is break-even · above 1.0 they made more than they lost; 2.0 means twice as much |
| Sharpe (per symbol) | Above 1 green (steady results) · 0 to 1 amber (profitable but uneven) · negative red (losing on average)                                                                                                          |
| Health score        | 4.0 and over green (healthier than your typical symbol) · 3.0 to 3.9 amber (about average) · under 3.0 red (below your typical symbol)                                                                            |
| Grid Return (x)     | Always shown in amber, whatever the value. Profit earned per unit of drawdown. A higher figure means more profit for each unit the grids were down                                                                |
| Anchor-Only Rate    | Not colour-coded. The share of grids that closed on their first position without adding another                                                                                                                   |

{% hint style="warning" %}
Analytics describe what has already happened. A strong month, a high win rate or a green health score does not guarantee the next grid will behave the same way. These pages show your strategy's past behaviour, not a prediction.
