Walk-Forward Years
year-by-year stability matters more than any single year
| Year | CAGR | Sharpe | Max DD | Trades |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | 13.8% | 0.92 | -21.2% | 6 |
| 2017 | 23.9% | 0.89 | -26.6% | 3 |
| 2018 | -26.7% | -0.69 | -38.6% | 8 |
| 2019 | 33.7% | 1.32 | -21.7% | 4 |
| 2020 | 692.3% | 3.19 | -33.7% | 4 |
| 2021 | 33.8% | 1.00 | -24.4% | 3 |
| 2022 | -34.3% | -1.28 | -40.2% | 6 |
A robust strategy performs acceptably in most years rather than spectacularly in one — look for consistency across regimes, not a single outlier year.
