Evaluate Your Trades

Have you ever wondered how your trades have performed? Were the trades a stroke of genius? Or would I have I just been better off, not doing anything? Or perhaps doing an alternate set of trades?

The Trade Evaluator will analyze your trades and tell you in detail, whether your trades added or subtracted from your performance, incorporating both the trade itself and dividends gained or lost. Trades are measured both on an absolute basis and can also be measured against a selected benchmark.
