Thanks JohnR. I am pretty sure this excel trade log will not support the calculations related to High/Low equity watermark on a daily/weekly/monthly time duration as it requires access to tick level data to do the calculations.
in my reading on the TJS site, I think it states it does not connect to any data.

which makes me wonder how algo traders of SC are able to proactively manage drawdowns as part of risk management.

I am not there, but what do you mean by proactively manage? Not being a fully implemented Algo setup - I would think you do analysis on your max drawdown on wins and same on losses, then make adjustments to stop-trail-exit parameters then replay / backtest to see if adjustments improve what you are looking for. Heck, rethinking Entry reasons is also a way to eliminate some bad trades.
Many of mine are when I go 'off-script'. Gotta love good ole Fear & Greed. I'm working on getting more Algo to make trading more rational and less emotional.

Just my thoughts,
JohnR
