SPY past 30 year drawdowns – useful for position sizing


I've built and automated these charts as part of my own trading and risk management system (see below for chart – apologies as sub doesn't allow images)

This sort of analysis is very easy to do but also very useful for anyone running any book that resemble a BTFD-style strategy. Hint: figure out a mapping for how much dip to buy on the way down (but probably not on the way up).

I saw a bit of panic this week after a few down days but those who have been in the game for more than a few years will know this is just drawdown for ants.

Current drawdown: 4.68%

Max drawdown: 55.4%
