Knowing your overall win rate is a start. Knowing that your Breakout strategy wins 68% of the time while your Reversal strategy loses money on average - that's actually useful. Most trading journals stop at the first number. Comparison reports give you the second, third, forth and fifth.
The idea is simple: build filters for any slice of your trading - a strategy, a mistake, a time window, a profit range, a hold duration - and then compare those slices side by side in a single report. Your top five strategies. Your 10 most expensive mistakes. Morning session versus afternoon. High volume days versus low. Whatever question you're actually trying to answer.
Every comparison report starts with a solid default - predefined KPIs, stats, and charts that cover the most important angles out of the box. From there you can add charts, swap metrics, create new tabs, and reshape the whole thing until it reflects exactly what you need.
Build filters for any dimension of your trading
Filter by strategy, mistake, tag, profit range, hold time, volume, market condition - any property on your trades. Each filter defines a group, and you can be as broad or as specific as you need. One filter for each of your top setups, or one for every mistake you've tagged in the last six months.
Compare any two or more filters side by side
Stack your filters into a comparison report and see every metric - win rate, average P&L, R:R, hold duration, and more - broken out per group, in parallel. Patterns that were invisible in your overall stats become obvious the moment you put two groups next to each other.
Customize every chart, KPI, and stat in the report
The default report gives you a strong starting point with the most useful metrics pre-built. But every element is editable - add charts, adjust KPIs, reorganize into tabs, remove what doesn't apply. Your comparison report should reflect how you think about your edge, not a generic template.
How to get the most out of Comparison Reports
Tag first, compare later
Comparison reports are only as good as your tags. The more consistently you tag strategies and mistakes, the more meaningful your filters will be.Start with your top strategies
Create one filter per strategy and compare them head to head. Win rate, average P&L, R:R - you'll know within seconds which setups are actually carrying your results.Compare your most common mistakes
Filter by each mistake tag and see which ones cost you the most. Not all mistakes are equal - some are minor, some are account-killers. A comparison report tells you which is which.Compare sessions and time windows
Filter by time of day and compare morning versus afternoon performance. You might be profitable in one session and giving it all back in another without realizing it.Use the default report as a starting point
Don't overthink the setup. The default KPIs and charts cover the most important metrics out of the box - customize from there once you know what question you're trying to answer.Use tabs to organize complex reports
If you're comparing many filters at once, add tabs to group related metrics together. Keeps the report focused and easier to review over time.Revisit reports regularly
A comparison report from three months ago tells a different story once you've added more trades. Check back monthly to see if the rankings have shifted.Ask one clear question per report
The most useful comparison reports are built around a single question - 'which strategy has the best R:R?' or 'which mistake costs me the most?' One question, one report, one answer.Find your worst setups
Comparison reports aren't just for celebrating winners. Identifying your worst-performing filters is just as valuable - sometimes more so.Double down on what the data shows
Once your best-performing filter is obvious, trade it more deliberately. Comparison reports don't just explain the past - they tell you where to focus next.Frequently Asked Questions

What can I filter by in a comparison report?
Any property on your trades - strategies, mistakes, tags, profit range, hold duration, volume, market conditions, time of day, and more. If it's on your trade, you can filter by it.
How many filters can I compare at once?
Two or more. Compare two strategies head to head or line up ten mistake tags side by side in the same report.
What metrics does a comparison report show?
The default report includes the most important trading metrics out of the box - win rate, average P&L, R:R, hold duration, trade count, and more. Every metric is customizable.
Can I customize a comparison report after creating it?
Yes, fully. Add or remove charts, update KPIs, create new tabs to organize sections, and adjust any stat. The report is yours to shape however you need.
Do comparison reports work for all asset classes?
Yes. Comparison reports work across all asset types - stocks, options, futures, crypto, forex, and more. Filters apply to whatever trades are in your journal.
Can I compare performance across different brokers?
Yes. If you've imported trades from multiple brokers, you can filter by broker and compare performance across platforms in the same report.
How is a comparison report different from a standard performance report?
A standard performance report shows your overall stats. A comparison report breaks your trades into groups - by strategy, mistake, time window, or any other filter - and shows every metric for each group side by side, so differences become immediately visible.
