Someone suggested adding a comparison to the backtest results, showing the profit and loss from buying and holding the asset versus the profit and loss from the user-defined strategy. I think this is really interesting to see.

Unfortunately, I don't have data on the performance of professional traders, so I can't say whether most of them beat index funds. If you have any sources, I would love to see them.
