The Trade Score is a numerical confidence rating from 0% to 100% that represents the overall quality of the current trading setup. It provides a more granular view than the letter grade and helps you gauge the strength of a potential trade.
Score Ranges
Different score ranges indicate different confidence levels:
- 80-100%: Excellent conditions, high confidence setup
- 60-79%: Good conditions, tradeable setup
- 40-59%: Moderate conditions, use caution
- 20-39%: Poor conditions, consider avoiding
- 0-19%: Very poor conditions, do not trade
Score Factors
The trade score is calculated from multiple components:
- Base Score (50): Starting point for all calculations
- Market State (+/- 15): Trending adds points, choppy subtracts
- Risk Flags (-5 to -20): Each flag reduces the score
- Trend Alignment (+10): Bonus when trend matches signal
- Volatility Adjustment (+/- 10): Optimal volatility adds points
- Confluence (+5): Bonus for multi-timeframe alignment
