Matthew -  
  
  
  
Some of the trades for systems are showing positive numbers in the drawdown column (which are usually a red “negative” parenthesized number).  
  
  
  
Timac for example, has a few of these - the last 3 entries, and 2 more further down the page. These mislead someone trying to sum across columns to do overall analysis. They show up as positive numbers when I cut/paste these into Excel !

OK. I think the problem is there is different software code for forex and nonforex (since we need to do currency conversions when calculating P/L for forex). I’ll try to get that fixed over the weekend.
