When to Use This Widget
Use Trade Count to spot consistency problems quickly:
- Falling counts may indicate missed setups or over-filtering.
- Sudden spikes can indicate overtrading or impulsive entries.
- Stable count with improving win rate usually signals better setup selection.
What to Review Weekly
- Compare trade count with average risk per trade.
- Compare count with net P&L to identify over-activity.
- Pair this with Daily Performance and Win Rate widgets for context.
Common mistakes
- Treating higher trade count as success without checking net P&L and average risk per trade.
- Comparing counts across accounts without switching scope in switch accounts.
- Using a monthly filter when reviewing intraday overtrading on expiry days.
- Ignoring sudden spikes that coincide with revenge trading after a morning stop-out.
Pair trade count with win rate widget and daily performance widget before changing position sizing rules.
