To me this system is something I would not touch

15.25% annual Return

And a Max trade Drawdown of 47.87%
That means that yours system lost almost half the money on one trade
Max System DD 17.27%  to me means that you are having huge swings of profit
and looses

So if you started with 10k  and traded one stock per say
You could loose as much as  $4787 on that trade,  but over time, looks like
you ran this for several years?   You will have a few large winners and
losers and loose sleep over the looses hoping that you find a big winner to
get you the 15% annual rate of return this system is suppose to give you

Maybe I am wrong that is how I read this
Not going into each line item either

Here is something I have been working on to give you something to compare
yours with
Starting with 30k

Max. trade drawdown	-8260.60	
Max. trade % drawdown	-17.54 %	
Max. system drawdown	-18002.66	
Max. system % drawdown	-12.74 %	
Recovery Factor         	7.57	
CAR/MaxDD	   		2.59		
RAR/MaxDD			4.96		
Profit Factor			7.40		
Payoff Ratio			2.66	
Standard Error		11579.83	
Risk-Reward Ratio		2.06	
Ulcer Index			4.56	
Ulcer Performance Index	6.07	
Sharpe Ratio of trades	1.48	
K-Ratio			0.09	


Net Profit %				454.11 %	
Exposure %				52.27 %	
Net Risk Adjusted Return %	868.82 %	
Annual Return %			33.06 %	
Risk Adjusted Return %		63.25 %	

The above is for   1/6/97- 1/3/03
YES I am testing this out over the good and bad of the last market cycle
