Walk-Forward Years
year-by-year stability matters more than any single year
| Year | CAGR | Sharpe | Max DD | Trades |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | 18.7% | 1.21 | -10.4% | 5 |
| 2017 | 6.6% | 0.44 | -20.9% | 11 |
| 2018 | -0.1% | 0.12 | -23.3% | 8 |
| 2019 | 19.5% | 0.69 | -27.8% | 6 |
| 2020 | 233.2% | 2.48 | -21.8% | 9 |
| 2021 | 23.7% | 1.03 | -14.6% | 9 |
| 2022 | -6.7% | -0.23 | -17.6% | 6 |
A robust strategy performs acceptably in most years rather than spectacularly in one — look for consistency across regimes, not a single outlier year.
