*Estimated closing trade to closing trade draw-down based on walk-forward/out-of-sample period (see disclaimer, below). Note that heavier losses than indicated are possible. Maximum Draw down can be used to determine the measure of risk involved with any given trading system. It represents the maximum peak to valley loss seen on the account during the walk-forward trading period.
CFTC RULE 4.41: Results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
The Swing Trader Walk-Forward Equity Curve
The following equity curve shows the post-optimization, out of sample hypothetical account balance for this automated futures trading system. Back-testing does have significant limitations – therefore comparing an out-of-sample/walk-forward equity curve with the in-sample/back-tested equity curve can provide helpful information with regard to the efficiency of an algorithm.
This equity curve represents the walk-forward results since this package was last optimized in October 2015. It is non-compounded, 1 contract was utilized on each trade. This algorithmic trading system trades 1 contract per $15,000. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Trading futures involves substantial risk of loss and is not appropriate for all investors.
The Swing Trader Back-Tested Equity Curve
The following equity curve shows the back-tested equity curve for the swing trader. The slope of the trend-line added can be compared to the slope of the out-of-sample/walk-forward equity curve (above) to get a gauge for the efficiency of this trading system. Among other stats, you can also compare average gain per trade, maximum draw-down and percent profitable to determine the efficiency of a trading system. When doing this, we will compare the back-tested numbers with the live (walk-forward) numbers – expecting them to line up fairly consistently.

This data is non-compounded (ie throughout the entire period, only 4 contracts were traded).
