How Strategy Profile Chart Works
What this helps you do
This guide helps you read the Strategy Profile chart so you can quickly see a strategy’s strengths and weaknesses at a glance. It matters because understanding this snapshot lets you compare strategies faster and decide which ones deserve a deeper look in the View Stats Panel and on the chart.
Where you see the Strategy Profile chart
You can find the Strategy Profile chart in the Stats section of the View Stats Panel.
Open a strategy from the Strategies area.
Open the View Stats Panel.
Click the Stats tab if it is not already selected.
The spider shaped chart you see there is the Strategy Profile. It gives you a high level summary of how the strategy has behaved historically across several dimensions.
How the Strategy Profile is structured
The Strategy Profile chart is a five spoke spider chart. Each spoke represents a different dimension of the strategy’s historical behavior:
When you move your mouse over the chart, you will see a score from 1 to 100 for the spoke you are hovering on. Higher scores indicate stronger or more favorable behavior in that area based on Wallstreet.io’s internal model.
The exact formula behind these scores is proprietary, but you can think of the chart as a way to answer a simple question:
“Across profits, risk, volatility, and consistency, where does this strategy tend to shine, and where is it weaker?”
The filled shape shows you how balanced or unbalanced the strategy is. A profile that stretches evenly around the chart is more balanced. A profile that leans heavily toward one spoke is more specialized.
What each spoke represents
Here is a practical way to interpret each spoke when you hover over it.
General
This is an overall view of the strategy’s behavior. It summarizes several aspects of performance into a single high level score. Use it as a quick “first impression,” not as the only factor in your decision.
Profits
This spoke focuses on the return side of the strategy. Higher scores generally indicate stronger profit behavior over the backtest period, including how well gains have stacked up relative to the trades taken.
Risks
This spoke focuses on downside behavior. Higher scores indicate that, relative to the model, the strategy has managed risk more effectively. Think in terms of how it handles drawdowns and losing trades rather than “more risk is better.”
Volatility
This spoke reflects how the strategy behaves when prices move around. Higher scores point toward steadier behavior in the face of volatility, or a more controlled equity curve, compared to lower scores.
Consistency
This spoke looks at how reliably the strategy has behaved over time. Higher scores suggest the strategy has delivered its results in a steadier way across the backtest period, rather than relying on a small number of outlier trades.
If you want to go deeper into the individual performance metrics behind these dimensions, you can use the View Stats Panel Complete Guide alongside this article.
What the colors mean
The Strategy Profile chart also changes color based on the algorithm’s overall view of the strategy. Depending on the profile and score, the chart can appear:
In general:
These colors are meant to be a quick visual cue, not a strict pass or fail. Because the scoring model is selective and the strategy library is large, strategies with truly strong scores across all dimensions are rare. That means you may see many red, orange, or yellow charts, and relatively few green ones.
If you want to tilt toward stronger profiles, use the Top Rated filter in the Strategies area first, then review the Strategy Profile for the resulting strategies. Even there, treat the color as a starting point, not the final word.
How to use the Strategy Profile in your evaluation process
The Strategy Profile is designed to work together with the other tools in the Pre-Built Strategies flow.
A simple way to use it:
Get a quick sense of whether the strategy is more profit focused, more risk controlled, more volatile, or more consistent.
Hover over each spoke to see the 1 to 100 scores. Notice where the strategy is strong and where it is weaker.
Turn on Trade Highlights, use the Crosshair and Heads-Up display on the chart, and then open the View Stats Panel to review key metrics and individual trades.
Used this way, the Strategy Profile helps you very quickly answer:

Things to keep in mind
The Strategy Profile chart is based on historical data and Wallstreet.io’s internal scoring model. It does not predict future results and it does not tell you how to trade a strategy by itself.
Treat the profile as a helpful snapshot:
Then, combine it with:
