Just wondering if someone could explain me how the Sharpe ratio is calculated in myfxbook (what an incredible site!).

...starting from this

Sharpe ratio = (Mean portfolio return − Risk-free rate)/Standard deviation of portfolio return

I'm looking at one strategy (long/short combination of different fx pairs)
with win % of 85%
profit factor of 1.42
Average win 35 pips and av loss -197.

SR 0.01


It sounds way too low.

What am I doing wrong?

the strategy has been doing on a real account about 2.5%monthly for the last 18months...strategy is pretty sound but it looks to me that the calculation is just based on the spread between the TP and STL ...not the percentage of winning trades

2.5% monthly profit means, 18% yearly profit! Such a good yearly percentage!
