I like the way things are going BLB -- very methodical and it appears to be low risk with above avg. returns

I'll need to adjust position sizing upward to attain my stated annualized goal of 25-30%. Risk is going to ratchet upwards a bit going forward. I would say that the sizing used in January's trades would be acceptable for "conservative" investors. As far as the returns go, January was very much in the "mediocre" category...not that far from the "ugh" category, considering the strong advance of the benchmark NAZ 100. Things should look better as the sample grows.
 
Quote from drukes1234:

Also, what's the max. drawdown?

I haven't yet built a module that provides performance metrics at given risk levels. (Damn these homespun strategies!!) I'm trading on the basic assumption that an Average Market Exposure of < 1.0 WILL manifest itself , over a sufficient time frame, in a lower risk profile than the benchmark. I'm also trading setups that appear to present better than average expectancies/win percentages. Technically, this SHOULD attenuate max drawdown further. Sorry I can't provide you with a more precise answer at this juncture.
