The opinions expressed in these forums do not represent those of C2, and any discussion of profit/loss is not indicative of future performance or success. There is a substantial risk of loss in trading. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. You should read, understand, and consider the Risk Disclosure Statement that is provided by your broker before you consider trading. Most people who trade lose money.
If you inspect a few C2 systems you will notice that some closed trades show a much bigger drawdown than the actual maximum drawdown of the system itself, as recorded on the system main page.
For example there is a C2 system with a max drawdown of 34.5%, and yet one of its intraday (closed) trade shows a 62.07% max drawdown!?!
Unless I am missing something, how is that even possible? 
IIRC this can happen in case of unpopular systems. Equity curve is calculated not often for such systems, therefore peak drawdown can be missed.
That could perhaps explain it.
Without knowing the exact strategy ID you are referring to, I can’t answer for certain. While a data error is always possible, another scenario is that more than one trade was open simultaneously; and trade 1 had a large drawdown, while trade 2 was profitable. This would result in an overall strategy drawdown that is less severe than the single-trade drawdown.
It all make sense now, it was indeed the case with that particular C2 strategy, thanks Matthew.
