Subject : RE: What's your favorite risk-return measure?

Steve,

While "rolling return" would also be an interesting measure, I prefer to look at fixed, non-overlapping periods. It's a simple way to understand how quickly draw downs are recovered and how consistent positive profits are achieved. I typically use quarterly periods as that aligns well with my risk tolerance.
