- Profit Factor: Total profit / total loss ratio (above 2.0 is highlighted in gold)

TT MAP
The 🗺 TT MAP button in the Top Trader Positions section visualizes all large traders' entry prices on the chart. This way you can see at a glance which price levels have dense position accumulation.
💡 Pro Tip
If elite whales' position direction comes from those with high win rates (70%+), it can be a strong directional indicator. However, whale positions are not always right: combine with your own analysis and never neglect your risk management.
