Here are the color codes, icon keys, and criteria on EA review performance.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quick Stats:Balance key:
All robots are ordered by equity (highest to lowest) of their BEST PERFORMING instance (when being tested on multiple brokers).
Balance figures do NOT include the starting balance.
The first number is closed P/L 
The second number is floating P/L
The third number is a simple average of profits per day
Example:EvolutionX
$1,983 · $-1867 · $152/d
This EA has $1,983 CLOSED profit and $-1,867 OPEN (floating) LOSS. Therefore, it's equity is really $116. ($1,983 - $1,867 = $116)
The daily profit ($152/d) is closed P/L divided by number of days since the start of the review, including weekend days.
> TIP: If you hold your mouse over the link, the equity will be shown.
