Prospective strategy record
First prospective strategy
This space is reserved for the first Tradour strategy that earns a frozen Playbook rule and begins a genuine forward record.
Truthful pre-live state
The record is empty on purpose
No strategy has started live tracking, so there are no returns, positions or trades to report.
- A Playbook rule earns a prospective test
- The rule and measurement are frozen in a version
- A genuine start time and data source are recorded
Performance record
The full journey, not only the finish
No performance has been recorded
Growth, a meaningful benchmark and the difficult periods will appear only after genuine live tracking begins. An empty chart is more useful than a convincing line made from pretend returns.
- Cumulative result and live duration
- Maximum drawdown and recovery path
- Monthly results, including losses
Make it clickWhy does drawdown belong beside return?
A drawdown is the decline from a previous peak to a later value before a new peak is reached. It describes experienced loss from the high-water mark, not return from the original start.

Keep the expectation honest
What Tradour knew first stays separate from what happened later.
What we knew beforehand
The historical evidence and Playbook version available when the expectation was recorded.
What we expected
The result implied by the rule, with its measurement defined before the answer exists.
What actually happened
The later outcome, added as a separate record without changing the original expectation.
What we learned
Whether the evidence supported, weakened or contradicted the idea, or simply needs more testing.
Make it clickWhat is the difference between history and a forward test?
Prospective testing records a rule, inputs and expectation before future outcomes exist, then attaches those outcomes without rewriting the original record.

Detail when you want it
Open one part at a time. The headline stays calm and readable.
Method through timeStrategy version history
A rule change creates a new version. It does not rewrite the period governed by an older one.
No strategy version has been activated
The first version will preserve its rules and recording time before live results are allowed to appear.
What was heldPositions and completed trades
Current positions
No current positions
Asset, direction, allocation, entry information, current result and linked evidence will appear here only when the record contains them.
Completed trades
No completed trades
Wins, losses and inconclusive results all belong in the eventual record. None are manufactured to demonstrate this layout.
Outside confirmationExecution and verification
No execution provider is connected
Tradour does not currently claim an eToro or other broker relationship. Factual profile and verification links can appear here later without changing the Live page structure.
