I will try it out. I use chart type of Price Changes per bar to simulate a intraday RTH session candle so this technique might work but only it OHLC values maintain persistence. What I mean by this is to run my strategy in replay model using whatever chart type I normally use, generate all the order fills in a sim account. Then I switch the chart type to Price changes per bar to generate a daily candle and then display daily peak/valley equity values. Final step would be to export into Excel to get "true" equity peaks/valleys and ignore the two columns generated in trade activity log.

Edit: Thinking further and if this solution works, I could create a continuous barchart of account equity from a start date with daily OHLC along with daily MAE/MFE/maxdd/maxrunup etc values and access those directly in the strategy to generate a smoother equity curve :-) unfortunately, this means I would need a second chart and do the funky business of chart overlays. Anyways, thanks for the tip !
