Statistical Notes:
Compound ROR: The Annualized Compounded Rate of Return represents the compounded rate of return for each year or portion thereof presented. It is computed by applying successively respective monthly rate of return for each month beginning with the first month of that period. It smoothes out returns by assuming constant growth.
Maximum Drawdown (Report Period): Represents the worst drawdown experienced over the report period.
Worst Drawdown from Inception: Represents the worst drawdown experienced since inception.
Risk Adjusted Statistics measure how much risk is involved in producing return. The Sharpe Ratio, Standard Deviation and Sortino Ratio are all risk adjusted measures.
The Sharpe Ratio has been calculated using a 1% Risk Free Rate of Return.
Downside Deviation & the Sortino Ratio have been calculated using a 5% Minimum Acceptable Rate of Return.
NC (Non-Compounded) indicates that the CTA calculates their performance using Non-compounded returns. Compounded numbers have been included in this report for informational purposes only. Please refer to the CTAs Stat Report for Non-Compounded returns.
