Its tricky to get something that reliably fits your risk profile, but have found Skate's defensive approach of a variable stop that tightens on the filter generally gives better RAR/MDD performance than tying to block buys when your filter activates. Strong stocks that meet buy condtions still rarely pop up during market downturns and can be expensive to miss if you're blocking all buys. Similarly, tighter defensive trailing stops in market downturns should contain DD but often won't kill the rare stocks that keep trending strongly.As I get more grey hair, worry more about DD and being defensive in trading and on the road than pure CAR and minimising time to destination. Heck, that's arguably been the biggest lesson from rotten 2020 and the CoronaCrash
