Hi Brad:
There are three computations for drawdown. The Max TradeStation DD, The
Max Mark-to-Market DD, and the Max Closed Trade DD. You should know how
TradeStation computes DD. If you have a trade that goes long, is $5000 in
the hole 3 days later, is up $20000 10 days later and closes out with a
$10000 profit, TS would report a $5000 DD. The Mark-to-Market DD would be
$10000. The Closed Trade DD would be $0.
