What These Numbers Mean
Profit Factor 2.726
For every $1 lost, the EA generated $2.73 in profit. A PF above 2.0 is considered excellent for institutional-grade strategies. Most retail EAs struggle to maintain PF above 1.5 over 200+ trades.
63.67% Win Rate
This is notably higher than the theoretical minimum (25% at R:R 1:3). The combination of decent win rate + strong R:R creates exceptional Profit Factor.
4.8% Max Drawdown
Over 24 days and 256 trades, the worst peak-to-trough decline was 4.8%. This is a conservative drawdown profile that allows 1% risk per trade without stress.
