Entry & exit analysis

Understand individual fills, combined trade results and long-term entry and exit comparisons.

Open Trade Tracker

Highlight one execution

Select Show on chart beside any execution to highlight that exact fill without replacing the complete-trade analysis.

Show on chart highlights the saved buy or sell and moves its marker into view. The combined entry, combined exit, outcome and Green-to-Red analysis stay visible for the complete trade.

ResultWhat it tells you
ExecutionExact time including seconds, quantity and price.
Candle location and precisionWhere the fill sat inside the candle range and how far it was from the favorable edge.
VWAP / EMA 9 distanceDollar and percentage distance from the saved Session VWAP and timeframe EMA 9.
ActivityCandle and session volume, relative volume and turnover when available.
PatternsCompleted patterns on the execution candle or immediately before it.
Price responseMovement in the trade's favor and against it after that fill, including available 5/15/30/60-minute paths.

One-minute sequence limit

A one-minute candle does not reveal whether its high or low occurred before or after a fill inside that minute. The Analyzer does not claim that unknown sequence.


Combined entry and exit

Read several fills as one quantity-weighted trade without losing the individual evidence.

Combined entry and exit use share-weighted fill prices. The complete trade runs from its first entry until the position returns to zero. It can report actual Trade Tracker result, holding time, maximum favorable excursion (MFE), maximum adverse excursion (MAE), partial exits and giveback.

A combined result answers how the complete trade behaved. Exact execution details show what followed one particular fill. Both views are useful and their populations should not be mixed.


Entry opportunity and risk

Compare favorable and adverse per-share movement after entries and adds.

CardDefinition
Average favorable move per shareMean maximum movement in the position's favor after measured entry/add executions and before the trade became flat.
Median favorable move per shareThe middle favorable value, which reduces the influence of a few extreme trades.
Average adverse move per shareMean maximum movement against the position after measured entry/add executions.
Median adverse move per shareThe middle adverse value.

Per-share movement is not whole-trade P/L

These cards show price movement per share. Actual result depends on quantity, scaling, exits and recorded fees.


Timing and holding

Compare distinct trades by entry-session group and total holding-time group.

Entry time groups use the account analysis timezone and place each trade by its opening execution. Holding groups use the complete time from first entry until the position returned to zero.

Executions counts are occurrences; Trades counts are distinct completed trades. Opportunity trades are the subset with a measured sustained profit opportunity. Win rate, average return and money results describe the complete group, not one current table page.


Entry execution context

Group entry and add executions by VWAP, EMA 9 and relative-volume context.

VWAP and EMA 9 buckets describe percentage distance below, near or above the saved reference. Relative-volume buckets compare execution-candle volume with its recent one-candle average.

ColumnMeaning
ExecutionsEntry/add occurrences in the bucket.
TradesDistinct analyzed trades represented by those executions.
Opportunity tradesDistinct trades with a measured sustained opportunity.
Win ratePercentage of represented trades with positive actual result.
Avg return / Avg resultAverage percentage return and average actual Trade Tracker result.
Avg potential resultAverage actual result plus measured additional opportunity.
Avg missed opportunityAverage positive difference between actual result and sustained opportunity.

Exit execution context

Group partial and final exits by giveback from an earlier favorable completed-candle price.

Exit giveback measures how far an exit was from the best earlier favorable completed-candle price available in the saved path. Zero means no measured giveback. Larger percentage buckets show more distance from that earlier price; they do not prove the earlier price was fully executable for the whole position.
