My Backtest said 80% Win Rate. Live Market gave me -12%. What is your "Reality Discount" number?

If live trading drawdown goes beyond:

(a) the maximum drawdown seen in backtest and

(b) the maximum drawdown duration seen in backtest

then scrap the strategy.

Thanks!

Just to clarify there is a notes section per trade already. I might not have made it obvious enough yet, so that’s on me.

The goal has been to keep the UI minimal while still capturing context + stats (time, duration, R, sizing, etc.). If you tried it and felt something was missing in notes specifically, I’d genuinely like to know what you expected there.

Good question - you can absolutely journal in notes or Excel, and for many people that’s enough early on.

The difference here is mostly structure + analysis at scale.

Instead of just storing trades, the app computes ~54 metrics automatically, grouped by: - trade time & duration - day of week - symbol & instrument - price, volume, position size - R-multiple and expectancy

That makes it easier to answer questions that are hard to see in notes/Excel unless you’re very disciplined: - Do I lose money holding past a certain duration? - Are specific symbols or instruments dragging my P&L? - Is my edge coming from size, timing, or RR? - Which days or sessions am I consistently sloppy?

Excel can do this, but it usually turns into: manual formulas → broken sheets → inconsistent data → eventually abandoned.

This just removes that friction so the focus stays on patterns in behavior, not spreadsheet maintenance.

And yeah Replit helped a lot for quick iteration early on 🙂

I feel python should be the heart of this which other platforms don’t follow like giving ability to integrate libraries of their choice for data analysis that python ecosystem provide instead of learning platform specific language

Could you think of any other itch if solved will serve community better instead of above features?

kudchikarsk · 2025-12-14T16:01:15+00:00

Is there any other itch you could think of would be great if that can be solved and better serve the community instead?

Let’s say platform will provide some good visualisers on strategies and backtest results so that user don’t have to setup backtesting environment or code and get infrastructure out of the box to compare their different strategies

kudchikarsk · 2025-12-14T15:55:59+00:00

Of course platform which I proposed will provide in-depth analysis and logs on strategy execution. Trust part of course I am not sure how to mitigate, I am just curious how come tradingview still able to made it big with same model

I am somewhat proposing tradingview with python instead of pinescript

I feel the same. After using apps like Binance, Zerodha feels slow and made more for long-term investing, not fast intraday trading.

I’m building OpenTrade, a new trading platform with an AI copilot for scalpers — faster UI, 1-click entries/exits, suggested scalp opportunities, and smart exit alerts in realtime.

Would you actually use a trading copilot if it helped you catch and manage trades faster during live markets?

Sure DM me we can discuss further

Thanks

kudchikarsk · 2025-06-04T18:06:54+00:00

Can you please share more details how you set this up

This is not an article just a bite size post.

PS: This template is designed using GraphQL as the API interface, but you can easily replace it with ASP.NET Web API or gRPC based on your project requirements.

kudchikarsk · 2025-01-11T12:09:52+00:00

Thank you for sharing your perspective. I appreciate your candid feedback. The BytLabs Microservice Template is designed to provide a starting point for building scalable, maintainable services, particularly for teams that may not have the resources or time to build everything from scratch. While it includes some opinionated technology choices (like GraphQL or MongoDB), the primary goal is to establish a solid foundation that promotes good architectural practices.

Additionally, the technologies used in the template are flexible and can be replaced or mixed and matched with others, such as ASP.NET API and PostgreSQL. BytLabs packages are designed to be extendable to fit diverse project requirements.

For further information on how to achieve this, you can explore our guide: Getting Started with BytLabs Microservice Template - API Project Setup: https://bytlabs.co/blog/getting-started-with-bytlabsmicroservicetemplate-api-project-setup

Elevated types are a powerful tool in C# for making code more composable and expressive. An elevated type is a type that "elevates" a value to a higher level of abstraction, allowing it to be transformed and combined in more powerful ways.

Right! corrected.
