What is Average trade return?

The average percentage gain or loss per closed trade. This is not the growth of your whole account.

Average trade return is the average percentage gain or loss across closed trades. It describes trades, not your whole account.

A strategy can have a high average trade return while only using a small part of your account, so your total account growth can be much smaller. Past results don't predict future results.
