Drawdown Stats

    Current SPY Position

    Posted by dtheo on 9th of Jun 2011 at 07:02 pm

    Does anyone have the max intraday drawdown (unrealized) for the system. I think I remember a post where it was 13%. If so, do you have the date as well? I am curious to see how that correlates to SSO and the futures.

     

    thanks,

    I calculated a max intraday

    I calculated a max intraday drawdown for the Multi Entry System (40%/20/20/20). This would put some money into perspective, and help as an illustration.

    I substituted SSO for SPY, and used a $50,000 position. This would be close to equivalent to a $100,000 position using SPY for the Multi Entry.

    The Max Intraday Drawdown for the System occured on March 6th, 2009.

    1st Entry: $20,000 position at a price of 17.70

    2nd Entry: $10,000 position at a price of 17.31

    3rd Entry: $10,000 position at a price of 15.75

    4th Entry: $10,000 position at a price of 15.43

    SSO hit a low of 14.16 on Mar 6, 2009.

    Here's what the intraday drawdown would be at 14.16: -$4,000-$1,819.76-$1,009.52-$823.07= -$7,652.35

     

    Lucky you. Double that for me.

    The largest drawdown occurred on March 6, 2009, intraday low of $67.10.  If you look at the Trade History, you can figure out the $/% drawdown.  BTW, that trade turned out to be a big winner for both the single-entry and the multi-entry version.
