Dislikedhmmmm.... 75% in the 2006 backtest was the worst over the previous 8 years... .... the end of year return was 1000% (in other words, the account made a 4000% return after the drawdown)
but... my philosophy is different than most..... i do not try to contain drawdown.... i figure the money is in the account to be won and lost.... otherwise it should be in other investments.
your 85% is phenomenal..... and it appears to be steady growth.... not choppy like my graph....
my goal is to compound the dog sh#t out of the account as quickly as possible. that's it. nothing more, nothing less. in order to do so, large risk must be taken.Ignored
