Is Poison Ivy safe to use?

On the trades we analysed, Poison Ivy closed losing positions rather than holding them open. Worst measured drawdown −19.2%. This is the cleanest class we assign, and it reports what we measured over the observed history, not a promise about the next one.

How does AlgoCheck judge Poison Ivy?

AlgoCheck publishes two verdicts, kept apart on purpose: a risk class, which says what the construction can do to an account (Stop discipline observed here), and a maturity level, which says how long we have been able to observe it (Young here). Neither is averaged into the other, so a high maturity cannot cover for a dangerous structure.
