Nanook,

This is the method I use.

Take the maximum win dividend and divide it by your profit, this gives the number of winners that make up the profit...the more the better.

Now you might ask why not use the average win dividend etc.

This is to show if the profit comes from a couple of fluke winners or not, so it may not be a trend, just an anomoly in future expectation.

Example: One of my systems, I divide the profit by the maximum win dividend and come up with 22 winners. This is very good, and continues to show profit in realtime. Other systems with very low scores of say less than 5, have dropped into loss or become shockers, because the profit relied on an unreal average of events.

Hope this helps.
