Red line (what you call brown) / blue line don't really matter. Green line is all that counts. It's a trade off really, my red line/ blue line are the exact reverse of yours, green line's in the same place though. I also guarantee that if you increase the red line your blue line will suffer. Concentrate on the green line and you'll be fine.

Red line = Non-Showdown winnings
Blue line = Showdown winnings
Green line = Overall winnings

This. Red line/blue line is a matter of your playing style. If you are very aggressive and bluff a lot then your W$SD is going to be low or maybe even negative but your NSW will go through the roof. If you never bluff and play super tight postflop, you will have minimal or negative NSW and a higher W$SD.

Definitely. But it's not just bluffing that effects these lines.

If you call too much (I do) your blue line goes down and if your opponents know you call too much they are more likely to give up thus your red line goes up (unfortunately not as much as your blue line goes down ).

If your bets tend to be bigger people fold more often (red line up) but when you do get to SD their hand ranges are stronger (blue line down).

Like I said before, the green line is the ONLY thing that matters.
