Backtests — the sandbox

Backtests are a separate sandbox. Trades here are fully isolated — they never affect your account, dashboard or analytics.

How it works

• Create a set (a scenario) — name, starting capital, default risk.
• Inside the set, add hypothetical trades with the same form as the journal.
• The set computes its own stats: equity curve, win rate, profit factor, R distribution, max drawdown.
• An R / money toggle — view the result in risk units or in currency.

Why

Run an idea over history by hand, learn a new instrument, or test entry/exit logic — with no risk to a real account and no clutter in your journal.

Think in R, not money: a set in R mode shows a strategy's robustness regardless of deposit size — "+25R over 100 trades" says more than "+$1,840".
