SQN Calculation

If you are familiar with  Dr. Van Tharp and his work, you might know about the System Quality Number.(SQN). This proprietary measure assesses the quality of a trading system and is roughly interpreted as follows:

• 1.6 – 1.9: Poor, but tradeable
• 2.0 – 2.4: Average
• 2.5 – 2.9: Good
• 3.0 – 4.9: Excellent
• 5.0 – 6.9: Superb
• 7.0+: Maybe the Holy Grail!

Tradervue now calculates the SQN for any set of trades. You can view the SQN in the stats tables on the Detailed, Win vs. Loss Days, and Compare tabs. Please note that since the SQN is based on risk-adjusted results, it will only be displayed when running Tradervue reports in R mode.

This feature is available to all users with a Gold subscription plan.
