## Drawdown Curve

<figure><img src="https://3449759962-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0SAQaFngaHZRCqZHrJkZ%2Fuploads%2F9jXH9mSYcMLxkdjBXbkf%2Fimage.png?alt=media&#x26;token=558c3489-9b4a-4817-997e-1784e04ba803" alt=""><figcaption><p>The drawdown curve on the General Analytics page</p></figcaption></figure>

The drawdown curve tells you how much you're down from your all time-high. This means that if the drawdown curve is near 0 all the time you're likely making constant all-time-high's in your returns.

## Metrics

Each metric is self-explanatory and the ones that aren't like Sharpe ratio, sortino ratio etc. are all explained on the page, just hover over the ![](https://3449759962-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0SAQaFngaHZRCqZHrJkZ%2Fuploads%2FPRC6FEoMcUilz3cOOVmN%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=697c0218-7dc8-4766-91d2-979f76ea22e8) icon next to the name in order to get an explanation for what it measures.

## Holdtime Analytics

<figure><img src="https://3449759962-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F0SAQaFngaHZRCqZHrJkZ%2Fuploads%2FBVk98X66wwTJq1cFNmoH%2FGA%20Holdtime%20analytics.gif?alt=media&#x26;token=0a249a6b-d95a-406c-8586-2aace9232667" alt=""><figcaption><p>Holdtime analytics on the General Analytics page</p></figcaption></figure>

In the Holdtime section you can see your trading stats broken down by the holdtime of the trade (how long it was open for).

You can choose between three modes:

* Regular
* Short Term
* Long Term

Each of these will show different holdtime intervals, short-term may be more interesting for scalpers/day traders, long-term for swing traders and regular should be useful for everyone

## Trading Session Analytics

In crypto the markets are open 24/7 but in traditional financial markets there are certain times the markets are open. The three main ones are:

| Market   | Region | Open time (UTC+0) | Close Time (UTC+0) |
| -------- | ------ | ----------------- | ------------------ |
| New York | US     | 13:00 / 1pm       | 22:00 / 10pm       |
| London   | Europe | 07:00 / 7am       | 16:00 / 4pm        |
| Tokyo    | Asia   | 00:00 / Midnight  | 09:00 / 9am        |

The idea is that the markets move more during these periods as there are more traders active from each region during these times.

{% hint style="info" %}
Since the markets are technically not open on weekends you can decide if you want to include data for weekends or not. It may be useful to you if you still trade during the weekends yourself.

## Day of Week & Time of Day analysis

These widgets are pretty self-explanatory, you get your trading performance split up by Day of Week and Time of Day, for time of day you can decide if you want the results to be grouped based on the opening time or the closing time of your trades.
