Re: [amibroker] RRRR (ROBUST RISK/REWARD RATIO )

 

Greetings --

Be careful.  In-sample results always underestimate risk and overestimate profit.  Metrics such as the one described are sequence dependent and always underestimate risk and overestimate profit. 

If you do decide to select a model based on in-sample results using this metric, carefully validate the model  That is, test performance on data that has not been used in deriving the model.

Best,
Howard

RRRR IS AN OPTIMIZATION METRIC DESCRIBED ON THE BOOK ( WAY OF TURTLE BY CURTIS M. FAITH) WHICH ONE I THINK IS BETTER THAN ALL METRICS IN AMIBROKER

RRRR= (RAR%) / (AVERAGE MAXIMUM DRAWDOWN PERCENT) *AVERAGE MAXIMUM DRAWDOWN LENGTH

AVERAGE MAXIMUM DRAWDOWN PERCENT = SUM OF LARGEST 5 DRAWDOWN PERCENTS DURING OPTIMIZATION /5;

AVERAGE MAXIMUM DRAWDOWN LENGTH = SUM OF LONGEST 5 DRAWDOWN DURING OPTIMIZATION /5;

CAN SOMEONE KINDLY WRITE A CUSTOM BACKTES/OPTIMIZATION METRIC THAT CAN BE USED IN AMIBROKER
