Health alerts check every re-run of a saved Library test against limits you set, such as a lowest profit factor. When a re-run crosses one, the test is marked Degraded, so you see at a glance which EA has stopped doing what it did in the original test.

Plan: you can set alerts on every plan. They are checked after each re-run, and re-runs need Pro (€29 a month). New accounts get 14 days of Pro when they first sign in to the app.

Set the alerts

1. Open the test under Library › Saved Reports.
2. Click the Schedule tab and scroll down to Health alerts.
3. Tick Check every rerun against these thresholds.
4. Under Compare, keep Per year, or choose Per day. A re-run covers different dates than the original test, so profit and trades are compared per year or per day.
5. Fill in the limits you want. Leave a field empty to skip it:
   • Largest profit drop: how far, in %, the annual return may fall below the original test's.
   • Lowest profit factor: the re-run's own profit factor (gross profit divided by gross loss) must stay above this.
   • Largest drawdown increase: how far, in %, the drawdown (the largest fall from a peak) may rise above the original test's.
   • Fewest trades a year: fewer trades than this often means the EA has stopped finding its setups.
6. Click Save health alerts. The badge shows Waiting for a rerun until the next re-run is checked.

See when a test is degraded

1. After each finished re-run, scheduled or started with Run Now, the app compares it with the original test.
2. If a limit is crossed, the entry shows a Degraded badge and a note that lists each reason, for example "Profit factor 1.12 is below the minimum of 1.20".
3. If every limit holds, the badge on the Health alerts card reads Healthy.

Good to know

• The alert is shown in the app only: on the entry, in Library › Saved Reports and on Library › Schedules. The app sends no email or Windows notification.
• Until you save, the card's badge reads Off even though the tick box is already ticked.
• The card shows the original test it compares with: its dates, net profit, profit factor and trades.
• Degraded does not stop the schedule. Pause it on the entry or on Library › Schedules if you no longer want re-runs.
