Coaching Insights
Not just numbers. Specific, dollar-denominated advice.
CrossTrade analyzes your actual trading patterns and gives you prescriptive recommendations. Not "improve your win rate" — instead, "your avg loss ($187) wipes out 1.3 winners. Cap it at $141 and your expectancy flips from +$47 to +$79/trade." Click the suggestion and the What-If simulator proves it.
Suggested Improvements
Data-driven suggestions that adapt to your situation — different coaching for negative expectancy, thin edges, and strong performers. Each suggestion calculates the exact dollar impact and snaps the What-If sliders to those values so you can preview it live.
What-If Simulator
Four sliders — win rate, avg winner, avg loser, trades/day. Move them and watch expectancy, profit factor, and daily P&L update in real time. Click a coaching suggestion and the sliders snap to those values. The projection chart below updates simultaneously.
Gauge Scoring
Four gauge cards score your Edge, Win Quality, Consistency, and Risk Control on a 0–100 scale. Each gauge is clickable — opening an educational modal that explains what the metric means, shows your numbers, and gives you a specific action to take.
Execution Efficiency
CrossTrade measures how much of each move you actually capture — entry efficiency, exit efficiency, and total efficiency. The coaching system identifies whether your entries or exits are weaker and tells you exactly how much money you're leaving on the table.
Trade-Level Detail
Every trade, fully broken down.
Click any day on the calendar and get a two-column modal with your full trade list on the left and charts, notes, and strategy breakdowns on the right. Click a trade to drill into its detail card.
MAE / MFE & Efficiency
See Maximum Adverse Excursion, Maximum Favorable Excursion, and entry/exit/total efficiency for every trade. Know how much heat you took and how much of the move you captured.
Daily & Trade Notes
Save text notes on any day or week. Tag trades with setup types, session tags, mistake labels, and discipline markers. Strategy breakdown shows P&L grouped by entry signal.
Cumulative P&L Charts
Each day modal includes a cumulative equity curve and per-trade P&L bar chart. Weekly modals aggregate daily P&L into a weekly equity curve with day-by-day bars.
Monte Carlo Simulation
What are the odds you pass your eval?
CrossTrade runs 500 simulated evaluations using your actual trade P&L distribution. Each simulation samples from your real trades, runs forward day by day, and checks whether you hit the profit target or blow the drawdown limit. Adjust the What-If sliders and the simulation re-runs with your modified parameters.

Zero Manual Entry
Connect the CrossTrade NT8 Add-On, or link your Tradovate account, and CrossTrade imports your fills automatically. Executions, orders, balances, commissions and fees, all of it. Syncs daily after market close, or manually any time with one click.

Auto-sync daily
One difference worth knowing. NinjaTrader keeps its own execution history, so a missed
sync catches up on the next one. Tradovate's API returns only the current session, so CrossTrade has to
capture each day while it is still visible. Leave Daily Auto-Import on and nothing is missed. If a
Tradovate day does slip through, you can drop in a CSV exported from Tradovate to fill the gap.
