MAE/MFE charts
The MAE is the Maximum Adverse Excursion.
The MFE is the Maximum Favorable Excursion.
The MAE and MFE ratios are useful to analyse the potential of the trading strategy. By displaying the MAE/MFE ratios related to the Pips and the Growth, the trader can see if it’s better to let run some positions or to cut the losses quickly.
Different charts can be displayed :
- MAE/Growth : the X-Axis represents the positions MAE in terms of percentage. Since the MAE is the adverse excursion, it will always be negative. The Y-Axis represents the positions growth in terms of percentage.
- MFE/Growth : the X-Axis represents the positions MFE in terms of percentage. Since the MAE is the favorable excursion, it will always be positive. The Y-Axis represents the positions growth in terms of percentage.
- MAE/Pips : the X-Axis represents the positions MAE in terms of percentage. Since the MAE is the adverse excursion, it will always be negative. The Y-Axis represents the positions amount of pips.
- MFE/Pips : the X-Axis represents the positions MFE in terms of percentage. Since the MAE is the favorable excursion, it will always be positive. The Y-Axis represents the positions amount of pips.
For each of these charts, the user can hover the mouse cursor on the dots to display, the X value, the Y value, and the Ticket position number.
