TradeBB 
Profit factor compares what your winning trades made with what your losing trades lost. TradeBB uses net results, after commissions, fees and swap.
The loss side is counted as a positive number, so the result is always zero or more.
- Above 1 — your winners made more than your losers lost
- Exactly 1 — they cancel out
- Below 1 — your losers lost more
Break-even trades don't affect it. If there are no losing trades in the selection, there's nothing to divide by, so profit factor can't be calculated and shows a dash (-).
Example (sample account, three months)
| Winning trades | 171, averaging $58.40 → $9,986.40 |
|---|---|
| Losing trades | 139, averaging −$61.20 → $8,506.80 lost |
| Profit factor | 9,986.40 ÷ 8,506.80 = 1.17 |
So for every $1 lost, these trades made $1.17.
Why it's lower than some other tools show
Many platforms calculate profit factor before costs. Because TradeBB takes commissions, fees and swap out first, every winner is a little smaller and every loser a little bigger, so the same trades show a lower profit factor here. The net figure is the one that matches your account.
