Rising Trailing Max Drawdown Question

View Count: 1100

I'm wondering if there is anywhere in the trade activity log that tracks this?

The max drawdown used for the LeeLoo trading program trails the OPEN equity, intra-trade (NOT closed profit). The $100K account has a max draw down of $3000. This means that the max you can lose is $3000 from the highest profit point (OPEN EQUITY, not closed profit), that your account reaches at any moment.

Thanks!

There is the "Maximum Open Profit" in the Trades tab that gives you the maximum profitability that the position could have had. Refer to the information in this section:

Thanks. So if a trade had a profit of 4 points and the Max Open Profit is 5 points, the trailing drawdown is 1 point?

I think what you're looking for is Maximum Adverse Excursion (MAE) which corresponds to "Maximum FlatToFlat Trade Open Loss"
