How to Compare

  1. From the Strategy Hub, select 2–4 strategies using the checkboxes
  2. Click Compare Selected
  3. AlgoChef generates a comparison report with:
    • Side-by-side score badges
    • Key metrics in a comparison table
    • Overlaid equity curves
    • Performance rankings for each metric

Tips for Effective Comparison

Tip

Don't just compare CSI scores. Two strategies with the same CSI can have very different risk profiles. A strategy with CSI 72 and Max DD 12% may be better than one with CSI 75 and Max DD 35% — depending on your risk tolerance.

  • Compare similar instruments — Comparing an ES strategy to a crypto strategy may not be meaningful
  • Check correlation — Strategies that look similar individually might be highly correlated, reducing diversification value if combined
  • Consider trade count — A strategy with 300 trades has more statistical reliability than one with 60
