You write a lot of BS.

My current rating is 68.3 with an overall return of 4.48% and a drawdown of -3.81%. Based on the rating calculator, I would need another 1.73% this month to reach the minimum rating of 75. The calculator indicates 4.63%, and I currently have 2.90% ...

Good result. I find it a bit of a shame that you're essentially forced to choose a monthly payout interval within 14 days. This should be possible at any time, especially since you're already paying €12 more. It's unlikely to create much additional ...

Question: Which investments would have achieved a better risk-reward result from June 2020 to today than a return of +295% with a maximum decline of -12.27%? To answer this properly, we need to translate your benchmark into risk-adjusted terms, not ...

darwin discussion

Based on the current return of +295%, I believe a maximum drawdown of -10% or even -12% is still very good and represents less volatility/risk than if you had invested directly in any stock index or similar instrument over the same period. That's ...

darwin discussion

I believe your figure of 13.3% is incorrect? The maximum drawdown is still listed as -12.27%. Based on the all-time chart of the INDX, this took place from January 22, 2025 (peak: +220,48%) to March 11, 2025 (through: +181,17%). Drawdown: -12.27% ...

Probably less important since the correlation is already minimized by an index that represents many Darwins.

Yes, you need a 7.33% return on the 50k 5% target booster to cover the costs of $550. Over 36 months, that would mean 0.20% per month. I'm thinking of buying a 25k 36k booster but without target return, just to see how it works. With the 10% ...

Yes. I should have been clearer; recurring monthly costs are more of a burden than a one-time investment. Anyhow I’ll now keep the current Darwin as a monthly subscription at least until the end of the year and think about linking the classic ...

darwin discussion

Thanks. Yes, maybe I should. I don't currently see exactly how they can help me. Regarding the psychological challenge of having my hard-earned money in my own live account, I agree with you, but I'm not worried about that at all. I don't trade ...

darwin discussion

Hi. Unfortunately, I still don't understand how the rating is calculated. My theory that it can be determined from one's own ratio between return and drawdown doesn't seem to hold true when I feed the rating calculator with my current values, where ...

I’ve deposited another 9k to the classic trading account in the meantime otherwise you’ve summed it up correctly. I believe i will just keep the Darwinex Zero Subscription and it‘s corresponding Darwin and create a new Darwin for my classic account ...

I do already have one (just not linked to a Darwin yet) including an investor account. Investor account is currently at 10.175 €. Started at 10k last week.

Hey Pip. Yes, I've long understood that Darwinex is a long-term thing, and that's perfectly fine with me. I'm just wondering if the Zero model is right for me, where I pay fixed fees for something I could have for free with a Classic account and the ...

darwin discussion

I think it's not so much a low drawdown per se that helps the rating, but rather the ratio between return and drawdown. That's the reason for my previous question and why I think risk-to-reward has a significant influence on the rating calculation, ...

darwin discussion

Okay, so your maximum drawdown was probably less than 3%. Well, I think my strategy isn't good enough yet to achieve these results in a short time. I would have to happen to start the calibration at a perfect time when the market was performing ...

darwin discussion

So could you provide an concrete example of what percentage risk to reward was achieved for one of your Darwin’s that finished the calibration phase with a minimum rating of 75? Then I can figure out how this translates to a certain risk to reward ...

darwin discussion

Yes, and that’s great (so at least it gets „easier“ over time) However, Hayseed mentioned it’s entirely possible to come out at the calibration phase and receive the minimum silver allocation straight away in the first month. So I wondered while ...
