Sorting #

Ananda Copy allows you to sort the strategies using different criteria. The available sorting methods are the following:

• Strategy Rank. The Strategy Rank is a proprietary method used to rank strategies in a comprehensive way, taking many parameters into consideration. For the calculation of the strategy rank, the following strategy parameters are considered
  • ROI. Considers the all-time profitability of the strategy. The value of All-time ROI is used.
  • Equity Based ROI. Considers the amount of funds that the provider used to achieve the ROI result i.e. how much of the provider’s own funds were used for each 1% of ROI. The average value is used.
  • Trade Duration. Considers the number of trading days i.e. number days when the strategy provider was trading. The more active a strategy, the higher it will be placed in the rank.
  • Number of Profitable Months. Considers the number of months in which the strategy had positive ROI minus the number of months in which the strategy had negative ROI. This parameter allows evaluating the long term success of a strategy.
  • Risk. Evaluates the degree of riskiness of the strategy and, accordingly, the risk of losing the investment
    • Equity Drawdown. The lower the equity drawdown of a strategy, the higher the strategy will show on the rank.
    • Risk Reward. The higher the risk reward ratio of a strategy, the higher the strategy will show on the rank.
  • Invested Funds. The more live followers funds are invested, the higher the strategy will show the rank.
  • Number of Live Followers. The more live followers a strategy has, the higher the strategy will show the rank.
  • Own Funds. The more funds the strategy providers invest in their own strategy, the higher the strategy will show the rank.
• ROI. The ROI of each strategy for the selected period is used to sort the strategies.
• Copiers. The amount of live accounts following the strategy.
• Copying Capital (Live). The more own funds on the provider’s account, the higher the rank

You can select your storing criterion by navigating to the top right dropdown list and choosing your preferred sorting method.
