Walk-Forward Years
year-by-year stability matters more than any single year
| Year | CAGR | Sharpe | Max DD | Trades |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | -4.3% | -0.51 | -8.7% | 2 |
| 2017 | 0.0% | 0.10 | -19.9% | 11 |

| 2021 | 30.4% | 1.04 | -16.8% | 7 |
| 2022 | -6.9% | -0.30 | -17.6% | 3 |
A robust strategy performs acceptably in most years rather than spectacularly in one — look for consistency across regimes, not a single outlier year.
