Hi,
I am currently running SBB on a demo account and all seems good. I understand that it must go negative for periods.. my question is

How can I find out the maximum amount it has actually gone negative to, the maximum draw down on that account?

Thanks
Wal

How can I hide the candles that are attached to the USDCAD chart as they obscure some of the trading text
Thanks Wal

You go to the chart, rightclick your mouse on the chart and select "properties" (at the bottom). You select the tab Colors: There you set "None" to all the options, except Background and Foreground.

Hi Wal.

There are probably other ways, but I run the MPBM no magic or comment EA on my dashboard chart. It shows you the max drawdown since it was loaded.
Just remember to turn off all the trade/basket management settings.
