It makes no sense. Using 3 year LB, FTMrev06 As you work thru OV starting with "Select portfolios": ONLY FTMrev06 it shows a nice curve and +58% return/-2.3% MDD when I hit re-calc. Awesome Hit Config Portfolio, check the inputs, hit re-calc: 83%HR, 35% CAR, -1.3% MDD, 26 CALMAR - again, awesome THEN next step: Acct summary": Under my ACCT along the top the results are horrible 73%HR, CAR -66.4%, MDD 99.4% (!!) Avg Ann MDD 48% (!!) 2% per trade invested, yet below under the FTMrev06 portfolio itself it is excellent - 79% HR, +33% CAR, -2.6% MDD Makes NO SENSE. Have I mentioned I find the OV website cumbersome, confusing, too many little, separate clicks under different tabs that matter, unclear as to what does what, uses different terminology than OT (setting 40% to get a 4% per trade allocation? makes no sense), etc The website is so bad it will turn off many/most potential investors when they cant figure it out or navigate it in a coherent, logical way. I have been delving into it for over two weeks solid and it still confuses me, and I know OT inside and out so I have that advantage over someone coming in cold. This is a terrible way to present a product So I have NO CONFIDENCE in OV and how it is set up because of this situation. Right up to the very end it looks good, then BOOM there goes everything. My TP settings are good, trade mult settings good, everything looks good except... Attaching screenshots. The numbers are different on the pic vs above (used different look back time), but the SAME result: FTMrev06 stats (great) and my acct stats (horrible) end up totally different even though FTM is the only portfolio I have selected BTW I have signed up for FTMrev06 and have it set to trade automatically via the TP Hoping you can help [Edited by Buffalo Bill on 7/7/2017 7:31 PM]  Attached file : OV confusion.jpg (471KB - 246 downloads) |
