Two Portfolios - One Mechanical System - A Trend-following Diary

Was wondering who you were going Trendnomics in this "relatively sweet patch" for trend traders last 7 months. Glad to hear its new equity highs :)
 
What's also striking to me is your "damn the torpedos" approach to drawdowns, knowing that in the long run it should allow greater profit potential. I see DDs of 25-33% through the last few months of last year (well in excess of 10%) but little or no lag pulling in profits during the bull market through much of this year to (relatively) quickly get into new equity highs.

You've explained this before, but all those drooling at your profits need to look more closely and understand the tenacity required to plough through those tough periods while staying true to the strategy.
