FZH currently at 11th place on Darwinia Silver, the competition closes at the end of the month but it's nice to see this strategy finally rebound, after a big drawdown suffered in 2024 ( Due to my mistakes for being unfamiliar with how the Darwinex risk engine works and being overly exposed)...

The overall standard...
