SHOOT!  Now you’ve gone and got me
confused!  I thought I was thinking rationally on this but I’m working on this
program and listening to my bluegrass music collection (maybe that’s it!) and
now can’t think straight on this...

 

I need to take a walk and clear my
head...

Statistical information is not fixed by the format
of graphical 
representation.  Statistics which show a 10%
or a 5% DD depending on 
where the trading start point is in time in my my
view are just plain 
not accurate.  If you build, test and optimize
a system based on 
fixed dollar amounts and the results say that the
largest DD that 
occurs is halfway along in time and that DD is 5%
then if you decide 
to start trading this sytem tomorrow then what DD
can you reasonably 
expect without knowing that your system has blown
up ?  I think the 
answer is you don't really know because the DD is
not based on the 
amount invested but on the account balance.

Look at Steve's charts.  The fully compounded
system says there is a 
max dd of 32%, the fixed dollar amount says
there's a max dd of 
something significantly less then that.  If
you start trading this 
system tomorrow with fixed dollars what dd can you
expect ?
