Risk,
as a design input.
Drawdown treated as something to design for, not a residual to explain away afterwards: the shape of the equity curve, the kill switches we refuse to add, the experiments that failed, and the trade-offs behind return, Sharpe, and drawdown moving together.
$100,000 → $7.54M · +137.2% CAGR · 2.44 Sharpe · -15.9% max drawdown · 1,258 trading daysLocked five-year backtest, hypothetical · track record · verified daily · research, not advice

The seed loss. Why small drift is catastrophic.
How a small early error compounded over five years into a half-million-dollar gap, and why operating discipline matters more than any single rule.

Return alone, Sharpe alone, drawdown alone. None of them.
No single metric is enough: return, Sharpe, and drawdown each fail when optimised alone. A sound strategy improves all three together.

Drawdowns are a feature, not a side-effect.
A strategy's return tells only half the story. See what drawdown measures, and why we optimize for the shape of the equity curve, not just the endpoint.
