Gary, what if a system is designed to use more draw? The draw really only tells you how efficient you are working. If you never get higher than 10% draw, that means that the other 90% of your money isn't doing anything for you. Plus, depending on the system, it could do well staying around 10% draw, then fail completely within a couple of days. Draw down should be treated like an indicator, sometimes they're wrong so we can't put too much faith in it. However, the system in question is so week in so many areas, I'm with you, it tells me all I need to know too.

That's one way of looking at it, Bob. What if I have multiple open positions, most of which are at profit lock where SL is beyond breakeven? I might only show 10% drawdown, and yet 90% of my funds are utilised. There's always more to it than meets the eye, I agree, but high drawdown is dangerous. Cheers, Gary.

well, with history blocked there really is no time to waiste on this...
On the little data that is available, I also don't like that avg win is smaller than avg loss, but that's my personal preference on trading systems. I know people trade successfully without that.

I had no problems with withdrawal even with amounts like $30 000 or $20 000.

Well this particular account says it has 1053.37% growth but if you click on the profit tab it says -$3.3k. I must have gone to the wrong school. I was never taught that you could have positive percentage growth yet be negative on your $$$ profit. That's a new one on me.
