    This is awesome thanks for sharing. When did the max draw down of 9.5% occur?  How come DVT didn’t trigger?  Thanks 

    I'm not sure I have

    I'm not sure I have to ask Myland on that one he inputed the data into Morningstar on his side not me.  It lists the DD date as 9/3/2020 but that makes no sense, the system had an awesome exit there as it exited only 2.71% from the highs!  I will ask him about that and to check his data

    ALSO and this is very important. Those draw downs are not losses, they are simply the difference where the system got out from the recent highs, almost all exits are higher than where the system entered. The drawdowns are NOT based off the entry prices, but from the recent highs.  I'll report back once I'm able to verify some of this data but nonetheless still looks pretty good

    YES that 9.5% draw down

    YES that 9.5% draw down is shows was an error!  he didn't have the 9/3 exit, I will be posting the new images here

    And again just to be clear the max draw down is NOT based off where the system went long, it's based off the max recent highs to the DVT exit.  For example Morningstar might show a DD of -6% however since that's from the highs tot he DVT exit the trade might still be up 5% or 10% from the original entry point.  

    here's the new corrected reports.

    here's the new corrected reports. Remember as I stated the max draw down is based NOT on the system's long entry point to the DVT exit, it's based off the exit from the recent highs, therefore you can most max draw down numbers were actually positive trades.  Anyway this new report doesn't show the graph back to 2006 for some reason so I'll get that, however the yearly data back to 2006 is on page 2. 

    I'll have some new stats
