We do not make-up drawdowns; big gains need drawdowns. Avoid magic systems and ratios, don’t be fooled. Our results always show results in Out Of Sample considering the publication date of each version. Some studies or comparisons could use the last version, but we do not make-up the past results with the new versions or optimizations; our official results tables and publications always show the real results)

All our algos have a max 2% Stop Loss (or less), a money management system and a configurable drawdown limit to protect capital in the worst cases.  All images show results with one contract configuration.

This algo is delivered to be used “out-of-the-box”, not recommended any change even in changing circumstances. Let us do the best for you; if the strategy has to be updated, we will do it after the corresponding study and period in real in our accounts before distributing it
