Walk-Forward Years
year-by-year stability matters more than any single year
| Year | CAGR | Sharpe | Max DD | Trades |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | -0.2% | -0.01 | -3.4% | 2 |
| 2017 | 5.8% | 1.85 | -0.4% | 8 |
| 2018 | 1.4% | 0.28 | -2.7% | 3 |
| 2019 | 12.6% | 1.22 | -0.9% | 3 |
| 2020 | 8.0% | 0.50 | -13.0% | 14 |
| 2021 | 9.2% | 1.05 | -4.1% | 7 |
| 2022 | -0.0% | -0.02 | -0.1% | 1 |
A robust strategy performs acceptably in most years rather than spectacularly in one — look for consistency across regimes, not a single outlier year.
