Tradeways Score0 – 100 · four pillars

Your P&L says what happened. Score says what is breaking.

A green day can hide reckless size. A red day can still be clean execution. Tradeways Score reads the record across Edge, Risk, Consistency, and Discipline, so one lucky winner cannot hide weak process and one clean loss does not get treated like failure.

Import your trades and let the record build the diagnosis.

  • Rule-clean losses stay visible beside sloppy winners, so outcome does not rewrite the review.
  • Risk drift can appear in sizing and drawdown before it becomes another account problem.
  • The score moves from the same record you review: trades, executions, strategies, journals, reviews, and account reality.

Same day, two readings

A trader can win money and still be getting worse.

P&L is necessary, but it is too blunt to coach behavior. The diptych below is the same trading day, read first by the broker, then by Tradeways Score.

The four pillars

Four readings. One diagnosis.

Every pillar is computed from real fills, journals, and account state — never from self-rating. Each one runs 0 to 100. The lowest pillar is the bottleneck. That is where the next review starts.

  • 60–79 steady

The bottleneck pillar

The weakest pillar becomes the review agenda

If Edge is high and Discipline is low, the next review should not start with a new setup search. If Risk is sliding, the problem is capital control. Score points the review at the constraint.

The next review starts here.

Feedback loop

Measure the fix, not the feeling.

A trader can promise to size down, journal faster, filter weak setups, or stop moving the plan. Score makes that promise measurable.

1

Start from the real record

Trades, executions, strategy links, journals, reviews, account balance, drawdown, and risk context feed the score instead of asking for a self-rating after the fact.

2

Separate clean losses from bad wins

A losing day can improve discipline. A winning day can weaken risk. The pillars keep those truths separate so the review does not chase the wrong lesson.

3

Review the pillar that moved

Use score history and pillar movement to see whether the correction is holding before another month of trades buries the pattern.

What it catches

The score is most useful when the story feels obvious and wrong.

Traders are good at explaining the last result. Score is built to challenge the easy story with a broader record.

Case · timing
EDGEDISCIPLINE

The setup is not broken. The timing is.

Edge can stay healthy while Discipline weakens. That tells the trader to review entries, confirmation, and rule adherence before abandoning a setup that still has expectancy.

Case · risk
RISK p90 / TRADELIMIT

The account is not unlucky. Risk expanded.

Drawdown, recovery factor, and risk sizing expose the sessions where position size started carrying the damage. The correction is smaller size and cleaner limits, not another indicator.

Case · progress
DISCIPLINEP&L+18 PTS

The process is improving before P&L shows it

A trader can journal more consistently, link trades to strategies, reduce loss variability, and improve adherence while short-term P&L is still noisy. Score makes that progress visible enough to keep the fix alive.

How the score stays honest

Slow to flatter. Slow to flatten.

A trading score that swings with every session is noise. Tradeways Score is calibrated so the number you act on is the number that actually moved.

01

Thin data is damped

Below 100 trades, the overall score is shrunk toward 50. A great month on 12 trades does not become a verdict.

02

Risk scales to the account

Risk thresholds relax for accounts under $10k and tighten as the account grows. The same $200 loss is not the same risk.

03

Smooth curves, not hard cliffs

Every sub-metric uses a logistic curve, so one outlier trade cannot flip a pillar tier overnight.

Tradeways Score

Make process measurable.

Bring the record together, let the score separate outcome from behavior, and start the next review from the pillar that actually needs work.

The first score gets clearer as your record grows.
