Do not judge a strategy by one number
Final PnL without context can be misleading. Drawdown, trade count, best and worst periods, and dependence on one lucky move matter more.
If most profit comes from a few rare moves, the strategy may be regime-sensitive. A more evenly distributed result is easier to control.
Trades and equity curve matter more than a nice card
Check where the strategy entered, how long it held, and how take profits and stops behaved. A report should explain behavior, not just show a result.
The equity curve reveals stagnation and recovery periods. If recovery is slow after drawdown, consider that risk before live launch.
Save only understandable presets
A preset must be reproducible: strategy, pair, timeframe, risk, leverage, stops, and limits should be clear before launch.
If the report is unclear, return to parameters, test another period, or choose a strategy with more transparent behavior.
