RoDD is the metric this catalog is priced on. Profit factor says the engine works; RoDD says what it costs to hold: net profit divided by the worst peak-to-valley drawdown. This system’s window: $98.5k net ÷ $6,200 max drawdown = 15.77×. Slide your drawdown budget — the projection scales with it, and so does the pain.

NOT BUILT FOR THIS SIZE The published max drawdown on this window ($6,200) exceeds a $1k budget — this sizing would not have survived the sample. Some systems are not meant to run this small.
NOT BUILT FOR THIS SIZE The published max drawdown on this window ($6,200) exceeds a $2.5k budget — this sizing would not have survived the sample. Some systems are not meant to run this small.
NOT BUILT FOR THIS SIZE The published max drawdown on this window ($6,200) exceeds a $5k budget — this sizing would not have survived the sample. Some systems are not meant to run this small.
THIN CUSHION The published drawdown is more than half this budget — one bad stretch uses most of your room. A drawdown budget of $10k historically returned ~$157,700 over this window (≈$7,510/mo average).
RECOMMENDED SIZE The smallest budget with a full cushion over the published drawdown. A drawdown budget of $25k historically returned ~$394,250 over this window (≈$18,774/mo average).
A drawdown budget of $50k historically returned ~$788,500 over this window (≈$37,548/mo average).

What separates this strategy
  • Two engines on the New York open: the inside-entry original (67.9% win across 305 trades) and the expansion-gated v2, published on honest costs. One purchase covers both.

All performance figures are backtested or validation-run results shown with commissions and slippage modeled, on the stated window. Backtested performance is hypothetical, does not represent live trading results, and is not a guarantee or projection of future returns. Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. Nothing on this site is financial advice. Access provides the strategy tool only; you are responsible for your own trading decisions.
