Performance and Risk

Returns, Drawdowns, and the Months That Lost

The record for every strategy inside AutoPilot Trader over the window shown below, with the drawdowns published next to the returns and a tool that tells you what your account can carry. Red months stay on the board. A record that quietly drops them is telling you about half of the outcome.

The Strategies

Four Records, Stated Separately

Each strategy carries its own window and its own caveats. Where a record does not reach as far back as the others, or where the rules were selected on the period being shown, the card says so instead of implying a uniform history.

Month by Month

Red Months Included

Every strategy at its smallest runnable size, month by month, for every year in the window. The losses are printed at the same size as the gains.

Position Sizing

What Can Your Account Carry?

Most calculators answer what you might make. On a funded account the number that decides whether you are still trading next month is the drawdown, so this one starts there. Set your account below and it will tell you whether a configuration would have survived the worst stretch in the record.

THT's exits change with size, so the figures below come from a run at the size you pick rather than a scaled one. Three contracts takes two targets and a runner; one takes neither the first target nor the runner.

Worst drawdown in the record for this configuration

Computed from simulated results. Simulated performance is not actual trading, and the worst drawdown shown is a historical figure, never a limit on future losses.

Running this is the part we do for you

Setup takes about 35 minutes on a call. We connect your broker, configure the strategies at the sizing you just chose, and test execution end to end while you watch.

How to Read These Numbers

Check the numbers yourself

Every figure on this page comes from these files. They are the same exports the charts are built from, published so you can run the analysis yourself rather than taking ours. Each file covers the window displayed for its series. The one and two contract runs for Core and Shield are separate engine runs and sit inside the bundle.
