# Reading the Results

After a run finishes, [Run Backtest](https://help.vole.bot/en/backtest/run-backtest.md) shows the
result on the same page. Here's what each part means.

## Metrics

* **Total Trades** — how many trades the run made in total.
* **Win Rate** — the share of those trades that closed in profit.
* **Net PnL** — total profit or loss in dollars, with the percentage return
  shown alongside it.
* **Max Drawdown** — the deepest drop from a peak to a later low in the
  running account balance during the run. A measure of how rough the ride
  got, not just where it ended up.
* **Sharpe Ratio** — a measure of return relative to how bumpy that return
  was; a smoother path to the same profit scores higher than a volatile one.
* **Profit Factor** — total money made on winning trades relative to total
  money lost on losing trades.
* **Avg Trade** — the average profit or loss per trade.
* **Avg Hold** — the average time a trade stayed open.

Below the headline metrics, a breakdown shows the count of winners versus
losers, gross profit versus gross loss, the single largest win and largest
loss, and the exact date range and number of bars the run covered.

## Equity Curve

A chart of the account balance over the course of the run, trade by trade —
the fastest way to see *how* a result was reached, not just what the final
number was.

## Trades

Every individual trade the run made, in a table: entry and exit, direction,
size, and its individual profit or loss. Entry and exit times are recorded in
UTC and shown in your display time zone; see
[Appearance](https://help.vole.bot/en/account-security/appearance.md).

## Diagnostics

Every run also gets a quick automatic health check across five areas —
**Config** (whether the stop/target settings fit the timeframe), **Trade
Quality** (how the exits and their outcomes are distributed), **Signals**
(how often and how one-sidedly the strategy fired), **Anomalies** (whether
the headline numbers look statistically unusual, including a rough check for
results that look fitted to this one exact stretch of history rather than a
repeatable edge), and **Indicators** (whether any indicator produced missing
or constant values). Each area is marked OK, Warning, or Critical, with a
short note when something stands out — or a clean bill of health if nothing
does.
