Walk-Forward Years
year-by-year stability matters more than any single year
| Year | CAGR | Sharpe | Max DD | Trades |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | 4.6% | 0.54 | -10.4% | 3 |
| 2017 | 2.0% | 0.20 | -20.2% | 5 |
| 2018 | -27.1% | -1.41 | -29.7% | 4 |
| 2019 | 59.0% | 2.55 | -8.5% | 2 |
| 2020 | 250.0% | 2.26 | -33.8% | 4 |
| 2021 | 59.4% | 1.95 | -12.5% | 2 |
| 2022 | -14.9% | -0.98 | -22.5% | 3 |
A robust strategy performs acceptably in most years rather than spectacularly in one — look for consistency across regimes, not a single outlier year.
