Hi All,
This has me baffled. I run an optimization and I end up with the Max. System
Drawdown greater than the listed Losers Total Loss. Here's the fields in
question.
Capital 100,000.00
Trade Size 10,000.00
Net Profit 5,315.42
Max. Trade Drawdown -2,615.84
Max. Trade % Drawdown -26.15
Max. Sys Drawdown -2,615.84
Max. Sys % Drawdown -2.49
# Trades 17.00
Avg Profit/Loss 312.67
Avg % Profit/Loss 3.13
# of winners 11.00
% of Winners 64.71
W. Tot. Profit 6,548.24
W. Avg. Profit 595.29
W. Avg % Profit 5.95
# of losers 6.00
% of Losers 35.29
L. Tot. Loss -1,232.81
L. Avg. Loss -205.47
L. Avg % Loss -2.05
Percent Profit 0.06
Percent Stop Loss 0.02
Net Profit calculates correctly from # Trades, # of winners, W. Avg % Profit, #
of losers, and L. Avg % Loss.
So why are Max. Trade Drawdown and Max. Sys Drawdown greater than Losers Total
Loss??? Isn't that technically impossible?
Regards,
Michael
