April was another very good month for our system, posting an overall gain of 28.82%, after making 53.16% in March! Unlike last month when system started to make money from the first day, this time system lost money for the three consecutive days, and that resulted in a higher drawdown. After having a negative first week, system started to make profits and continued to do so until the end of a month with only one more negative day. Because of that negative first week, our drawdown based on loosing trades in April increased to -9.24%.

At the end of April, South trading system made 28.82% before commissions, and a compounded gains of 213.54% (since inception in January 2011). This month’s drawdown was -9.24%, which is higher then a historical drawdown of -5.37%. It is important to understand that reported drawdown was based on loosing trades only, which means that if a trade was profitable when closed, but had a loss while it was opened (because of natural contractions of the market), that loss would not be reported by our drawdown calculations! Real drawdown is allways higher by 3-5%, so readers should know this.

Largest daily loss during the month was -4.73%, and a largerst daily gain of 8.24%.

At the end of reporting month and since inception, South trading system made a profit of $21,354 and finished a month with a balance of $31,354.
