It's not about possible or not possible, it's about how it is. As far as I know, the drawdown in the report is by equity, not balance.
Boris probably meant that the drawdown of equity on the balance sheet is recorded (drawn) when a position is closed and if some positions with drawdown are not closed, the equity value at the moment of closing a position will be shown by the line on the diagram. If at the moment of the largest drawdown no positions were closed, the level of the largest drawdown will not be reflected on the graph.

Thank you very much. It has become much clearer.

So, what is an acceptable drawdown?


Lot 0.1(1 dollar)

Leverage 1-500.

I am not affected by it. Until the previous trade is closed, the next one will not open, i.e. there is only 1 order in the trade.

О... well... I couldn't imagine anyone taking this chart seriously.

Thank you. Your comment will help me understand this issue.

Can I double the drawdown on Equity if the price is down 300 p. and no more than that, with a 400 p. stop?



You guys are so... Going against all principles of engineering... I don't understand you. If we are talking about balance drawdown and equity drawdown, then equity drawdown can be much worse than balance drawdown. Balance drawdown is not an indicator at all. But the equity drawdown is in the report.

The chart in the tester is not an indication of the drawdown or anything else, it is just a... a certain schematic representation of how the Expert Advisor works.
