Annual Return (Compounded)

Rate of Return Calculations

Overview

To comply with NFA regulations, we display Cumulative Rate of Return for strategies with a track record of less than one year. For strategies with longer track records, we display Annualized (Compounded) Rate of Return.

How Annualized (Compounded) Rate of Return is calculated

= ((Ending_equity / Starting_equity) ^ (1 / age_in_years)) - 1

Remember that, following NFA requirements, strategy subscription costs and estimated commissions are included in marked-to-market equity calculations.

All results are hypothetical.

ABOUT ARES

Ares is a long/short swing trading strategy which trades 10 different currency pairs* simultaneously with an average trade duration of 2.5 days. The system risks approximately 0.75%** of the model account balance per trade.

Ares has been backtested over a period of 12 years (2002-2013) generating 23,615 trades.

Key backtest statistics:
Annual Compounded Return: 54%
Maximum Drawdown: 40%
Average Annual Drawdown: 30%
Profit Factor: 1.1
Avg. Win / Avg. Loss: 1.7
% Profitable: 40%
Expectancy: 1.1%
MAR Ratio: 1.34
Sortino Ratio: 1.75

Because the system utilizes proprietary capital management algorithms and scales out of some profitable trades, a minimum trade scaling percentage of 100% is recommended in order to take full advantage of the system's algorithms. Further, due to the frequency of trades placed by Ares, it is recommended that the system be auto traded.

If you have any questions regarding Ares, please do not hesitate to contact us.

*EUR/USD, GBP/USD, EUR/GBP, USD/CHF, USD/CAD, AUD/USD, USD/JPY, EUR/JPY, GBP/JPY, AUD/JPY
**Typically, there will be open positions in multiple currency pairs, simultaneously. Because each pair risks approximately 0.75% of capital, the total capital risked at any point in time could be higher than the 0.75% described above.
***Fills during backtesting take into consideration price and volume at the time of execution. Slippage was assumed to be one pip on all round-trip trades. Commissions were assumed at US$0.50 per 10,000 units traded.

Most values on this page (including the Strategy Equity Chart, above) have been adjusted by estimated trading commissions and subscription costs.

Some advanced users find it useful to see "raw" Model Account values. These numbers do not include any commissions, fees, subscription costs, or dividend actions.

Strategy developers can "archive" strategies at any time. This means the strategy Model Account is reset to its initial level and the trade list cleared. However, all archived track records are permanently preserved for evaluation by potential subscribers.

About the results you see on this Web site

Past results are not necessarily indicative of future results.

These 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.

In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program, which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all of which can adversely affect actual trading results.

Material assumptions and methods used when calculating results

The following are material assumptions used when calculating any hypothetical monthly results that appear on our web site.

  • Profits are reinvested. We assume profits (when there are profits) are reinvested in the trading strategy.
  • Starting investment size. For any trading strategy on our site, hypothetical results are based on the assumption that you invested the starting amount shown on the strategy's performance chart. In some cases, nominal dollar amounts on the equity chart have been re-scaled downward to make current go-forward trading sizes more manageable. In these cases, it may not have been possible to trade the strategy historically at the equity levels shown on the chart, and a higher minimum capital was required in the past.
  • All fees are included. When calculating cumulative returns, we try to estimate and include all the fees a typical trader incurs when AutoTrading using AutoTrade technology. This includes the subscription cost of the strategy, plus any per-trade AutoTrade fees, plus estimated broker commissions if any.
  • "Max Drawdown" Calculation Method. We calculate the Max Drawdown statistic as follows. Our computer software looks at the equity chart of the system in question and finds the largest percentage amount that the equity chart ever declines from a local "peak" to a subsequent point in time (thus this is formally called "Maximum Peak to Valley Drawdown.") While this is useful information when evaluating trading systems, you should keep in mind that past performance does not guarantee future results. Therefore, future drawdowns may be larger than the historical maximum drawdowns you see here.

Trading is risky

There is a substantial risk of loss in futures and forex trading. Online trading of stocks and options is extremely risky. Assume you will lose money. Don't trade with money you cannot afford to lose.

Okay, gotcha.
