Key Insights

Average correlation of 0.250 indicates excellent diversification across the portfolio.

Low correlations mean systems are trading independently, which reduces portfolio drawdown while maintaining returns.

Higher correlations between some systems (particularly those trading the same instrument) are expected and still contribute to overall portfolio stability.
