I meant for a trade in September. Max drawdown was -$5000, and it closed for a profit of $500. But it showed "No Calc" above the trade. I've never...
13% closed drawdown. If you look at open drawdown I see one trade that has a 20-25% open drawdown. Is it an error? It shows "no calc' there. Just...
It took a lot of OO losses for me to realize that when I sat there "wishing", it 90% of the time just turned into a bigger loser. So whenever I...

Dude, that's your problem right there. Only 1 month of backtested data. Spend the time and download at least a couple years of tick data. I know...
