What you see
Navigate to Analysis → Symbol Performance in the sidebar. The page shows two comparison charts and a detailed table.Comparison charts
Two bar charts at the top give you a visual comparison across all symbols you’ve traded in the selected period:- Win Rate by Symbol — Which contracts you win on most often
- Profit/Loss by Symbol — Where the actual dollars are coming from (or going)
Performance table
Below the charts, a detailed table breaks down each symbol with:| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Symbol | The root symbol (ES, MES, NQ, MNQ, etc.) |
| Trades | Total trade count for that symbol |
| Win Rate | Percentage of winning trades |
| Profit Factor | Gross profit ÷ gross loss |
| Avg Win | Average winning trade size in dollars |
| Avg Loss | Average losing trade size in dollars |
| Avg MAE | Average maximum adverse excursion in points (ES/MES/NQ/MNQ only) |
| Avg MFE | Average maximum favorable excursion in points (ES/MES/NQ/MNQ only) |
| Net P&L | Total profit or loss for that symbol |
Filtering
Like all analysis views, you can filter by date range (7, 30, 90, or 365 days) and account (via the sidebar switcher). The data recalculates dynamically when you change filters.How to use symbol analysis
This view is especially useful for traders who:- Trade both minis and micros — Compare your performance on ES vs. MES to see if the different contract size affects your decision-making
- Trade multiple markets — If you trade both S&P and Nasdaq futures, see which market suits your style better
- Are considering dropping a symbol — Hard data on whether a contract is actually profitable for you, rather than relying on gut feeling
MAE/MFE data in the symbol table is particularly useful here, since these values are inherently symbol-specific. Two points of MAE on ES (10).
