# Obside Score The **Obside Score** is a synthetic estimate of the quality of a **backtest**. It combines three dimensions: * **Performance** over the tested period. * **Risk** (drawdown, volatility, loss profile). * **Statistical reliability** (number of trades, robustness, stability). The score is displayed automatically at the end of each backtest, and lets you quickly compare multiple versions of the same agent or several agents against each other. {% hint style="info" %} The Obside Score applies to **backtests** only. It doesn't reflect live execution performance, which depends on current market context and may diverge from historical results. {% endhint %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
