Create and manage strategies

A strategy is a model you trade — "Silver Bullet", "Opening range breakout", whatever you call it. You pick it on each trade, and Ink shows how that model performs. Ink never guesses a strategy for you: tagging the trade is the journaling.

Strategies live under Stats → Strategies.

#Create one

1. Click New strategy.
2. Give it a name and, if you like, One line on the setup.
3. Under Criteria, add each condition your setup needs: tap a suggestion (+ FVG entry, + Killzone time, + News clear) or + Custom to type your own. Drag a row by its handle to reorder it (or focus the handle and use ↑ / ↓); × removes it. In log trade shows the checklist you'll tick when you log a trade with it. See Setup criteria and the edge finder.
4. Click Create strategy.

Then pick it under Strategy when you log or edit a trade.

#What each card shows

• Net P&L and total R.
• R / trade — the total R of trades with a risk amount, divided by how many there are. A trade's R is its net P&L ÷ its risk amount (computeRMultiple, lib/trade-stats.ts).
• Win rate and number of trades — a win is a trade whose net P&L is above the breakeven band — and your last ten trades.

Pick a card to see that strategy below: its best day and session, Checklist followed (how often you met each criterion — met ÷ the trades you answered it on, the same figure as By criterion), every trade in R, its Net, Win rate, R / trade and Avg RR (winners), then View N trades, Open strategy page and Log a trade with it. Under it, over its full history: Where it works (by session, day of week or time of day — "early read" while a row has fewer than 10 trades), the Edge finder, By criterion and Recent trades (View all N in Journal).

The stats cover the account selected in the top bar. Search, filter by All / Active / Archived, and Sort by Net, R / trade, Win % or Trades.

#Edit, archive, delete

From a card's ⋯ menu, or the ⋯ on the strategy's own page:

• Edit — opens Edit strategy: change the name, description and criteria, then Save changes. Past trades keep the criteria results they were logged with.
• Archive — hides it from Log trade (a trade that already uses it can keep it). Unarchive brings it back.
• Delete — removes it for good. Its trades lose their strategy tag but keep their criteria results, grade, notes and tags. This can't be undone.

#On the Free plan

• One active strategy. Archived strategies don't count. New strategy at the limit says "Free includes 1 active strategy — archive one or get Pro".
• Stats cover your full history: the trade count, win rate, R / trade and Avg RR (winners), and recent trades. Net P&L, total R, the line and last ten, best day / session, the checklist %, every trade in R and the sections below are Pro — blurred shapes under a Pro card, never your numbers. A strategy with no trades shows Log a trade with this strategy.
• After Pro ends, nothing is deleted: one strategy stays Active on Free and the rest are Read-only on Free. Use Make active to switch which one.
