Subject : More PPT Statistics
Posted : 7/18/2017 3:29 PM
Post #36817 - In reply to #36816

The following chart shows some interesting statistics about the PPT for all trades entered when the equity curve was in a DD or Move Up % range from the previous “pivot”.




A) White cell stats are for trades placed on a day when MTM was in a block from 0% to 1% up in new high territory

B) PPT (1.17%) for all trades entered when MTM was >= 0% up in new high territory

C) PPT (1.97%) for all trades entered when MTM was >= 3% up in new high territory

D) PPT (1.44%) for all trades entered when MTM was in a range from -3% DD to +3% Move up

E) White cell stats are for trades placed on a day when MTM was in a block from 0% to -1% down in DD territory

F) PPT (2.24%) for all trades entered when MTM was <= -3% down in DD territory


The interesting observation is that the PPT rises as the equity curve moves further away from the last “pivot point” defining the beginning of a Move Up or a Drawdown, whether the move is Up or Down.

It makes me wonder about the wisdom of halting trading when the equity curve drops below some fixed % down.


It’ll take some testing with OV if / when we get that capability…
