This week outperformed last week with an excess return of 55 percentage points. However, profit fluctuations are inevitable. The current strategic focus boils down to one point—stabilizing the drawdown. In simple terms, it's about controlling risk. The maximum drawdown (MDD) has become our core metric for evaluating the quality of the strategy. Stability and downside protection are precisely the most commendable aspects of this portfolio layout. Rather than pursuing maximum returns, it's better to focus on the portion that can be held steady.

Staying steady during a pullback is really not a problem; it's much smarter than those who chase huge profits and end up blowing up their accounts.

Staying steady during a pullback—I've been using this logic for a long time. The key is psychological resilience; don't let unrealized gains scare you away.

honestly the mdd obsession feels like institutional cope at this point... like yeah control downside risk whatever, but 55bps outperformance kinda matters too no? the whole "we're actually winning by not losing" framing—seen this playbook before and it usually precedes getting rekt

Staying steady through the pullback, I trust this more than those who boast about extreme returns every day.

Staying calm during a pullback is the right approach; rushing for quick gains is the easiest way to crash.

Staying steady during a pullback is the real key; otherwise, it's like riding a roller coaster, exhausting. The 55-point excess return may seem impressive, but the true measure of peace of mind is the MDD indicator. Downside protection is not just talk; you can see the difference when the market crashes.
