The accountability score
How goals, routine, game plan and finance come together into one score on your overview.
By NKTrades
The accountability score is a Premium widget at the bottom of Trading → Overview. It summarizes how well you keep track of your trading, not how much profit you make.
The pillars
The score is made up of four parts:
Goals: how many of your active goals you reach.
Routine: how completely you fill in your routine days.
Game plan: how many of your trades are linked to a strategy, and how well you follow your own rules.
Finance (also premium): whether you stay within your spending plan's ceiling, and the return once something has settled.
Every pillar has three states: not set up yet, set up but nothing to measure yet, or actually measuring. Only a pillar that's actually measuring counts toward the score: a pillar you haven't set up yet doesn't drag your score down, but it doesn't count as a bonus either.
How the score is calculated
The four pillars don't weigh equally: goals and game plan weigh heaviest, then routine, then finance the lightest. If a pillar measures nothing, its weight is redistributed across the pillars that do measure. If too few pillars measure anything at all, the widget shows no score whatsoever: a score built on almost nothing would be a falsely precise number.
A score of 0 would claim you're failing. Missing data shows a dash instead, never a 0.
What the widget shows
Alongside the score you see a short note per pillar (for example how many of your goals you reach, how many routine days you filled in, or how many trades you linked to a strategy), so you can see at a glance which pillar is pulling your score up, or holding it back.
