Trade Analysis

Understand your edge with multi-dimensional analysis. Options break down by outcome, hold time, and days to expiration (DTE) at entry. Stocks open across tabs — By Ticker with buy and sell zones and results ordered best to worst, Time of Day, Day of Week, and Overall — so you can see which names, sessions, and hours actually drive your profits.

Analyze Your Trades

Buy and Sell Zones

Every symbol you've traded gets a buy zone and a sell zone — the range your entries landed in, and the range your exits did, with the median marked inside each. Where the two sit relative to each other is the shape of how you actually trade that name.

It reveals concentration a list can't. Is nearly every entry landing in one narrow band? Do your exits cluster just above it? Beside the zones sit median gain, average hold, win rate and total P&L, so the pattern and the result read on the same row.

Time of Day

Your exits roll up into market sessions — pre-market, regular hours, after-hours, and overnight — each with its own win rate and average result. Below, an exit-hour breakdown charts which hours you tend to close green and which give it back.

The session cards stay on exchange (Eastern) time, while the hour breakdown switches between your local time and ET — so a hunch like “I only do well before 11” becomes something you can actually check.

Day of Week

A card per weekday carries its own P&L and win rate, next to a bar chart of P&L by exit weekday and a distribution donut showing where your exits actually land. Maybe Tuesdays carry the account and Friday afternoons give it back.

Like the hour breakdown, weekdays read in your local time or Eastern. These patterns are invisible in a spreadsheet but immediately obvious here — so you can focus your schedule on the windows that work.

Closed Trades History

Every locked stock position is logged in a sortable, filterable table. See the ticker, direction, entry and exit prices, holding period, and realized P&L for each closed position. Options get their own dedicated analysis with strategy-level breakdowns.

Sort by P&L to find your biggest winners and losers. Filter by date range, ticker, or trade type to zoom into specific periods or strategies. Export the data if you need it for your records.

Options Trade Analysis

Breakdowns reveal how your options perform by strategy, outcome, hold time and days to expiration (DTE) at entry — and further down, by delta at entry and by how much of the premium you captured. Each bucket carries its total P&L, trade count, win rate and average return.

Find out whether expired positions outperform early closes, which hold durations deliver the best returns, and which DTE windows give you an edge. Filter by strategy, history, and outcome.

Hold time adapts to the book it's describing. If you scalp or trade zero-DTE, every bucket used to read “less than a day” — true, and useless. A scalper now sees minutes, a swing trader still sees days, and there's no toggle to find. Same trades, a scale that fits them.

Performance Overview

Get the big picture in one view. The Overall tab opens with a risk profile — expectancy per position, win rate, payoff ratio, profit factor, longest streaks and max drawdown — then names your best and worst entry day and hour, backed by aggregated P&L across all closed positions.

Below the summary cards, day-of-week and hour-of-day breakdowns let you compare win rates, average P&L, and trade counts side by side. Switch between chart and table views.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of analysis does TickerScribe provide?
For options: P&L by outcome, hold time, and DTE at entry insights, plus a strategy overview of every closed group. For stocks: By Ticker, Breakdowns, Time of Day, Day of Week, and Overall analysis.
What does the By Ticker tab show?
One line per symbol you trade: its latest price, the buy and sell zones your fills landed in, median gain, average hold, win rate, trade count, and total P&L — ordered best to worst. Group related tickers to compare cohorts instead of single names.
How does price range distribution help my trading?
It shows which price ranges you profit in most and where you tend to lose. This helps you focus on your strongest setups and avoid ranges where your edge is weakest.
Can I see which days of the week I trade best?
Yes. The Day of Week tab gives each weekday its own card with P&L and win rate, plus a P&L-by-weekday bar chart and a distribution donut showing where your exits land. Weekdays read in your local time or Eastern.
What is time-of-day analysis?
It groups your exits into market sessions — pre-market, regular hours, after-hours, and overnight — each with its win rate and average result, then charts an exit-hour breakdown below. Session cards stay on Eastern time; the hour chart toggles between your local time and ET.
Does hold-time analysis work for intraday trading?
Yes. Hold time adapts to the trades it's describing — if you scalp or trade zero-DTE, the buckets read in minutes instead of collapsing into a single “less than a day” row. A swing trader still sees days. Nothing to configure; the scale follows the book.
How can I filter the analysis?
Options analysis filters by strategy, history, and outcome. Stock analysis has two global filters — History (last 3, 5, 10 positions or all time) and Outcome (winners, losers, or both).
Which trades appear in the analysis?
Options analysis shows all closed option groups. Stock analysis shows locked (fully closed) stock positions. This ensures the analysis reflects complete round-trip trades with final P&L.
