Suspicious DD $ numbers

[DanielV]

The csv file with recently closed trades contains some DD $ entries where the $ drawdown is smaller (i.e. less negative) than the pnl loss. How is that possible?



Example:

VT26 system: 11/24 10:45am, long XGZ9

DD $ = - 682.50

Trade P/L = -888

I ran into this exact same issue 16 years later. Here are three trades from the max drawdown period of Adaptive Investments. The equity curve shows a DD of over $3,000. The CSV data does not indicate this same level of DD. The bottom trade also has a DD amount less than the trade loss.
