The drawdown is often used by traders to measure a trading performance, but sometimes the drawdown is rarely known by traders, especially beginners.

The drawdown shows the details of the drop on our trade.
From the results of this data it can help to analyze improvements to improve further trading performance.

Drawdown is the trading performance we have done, and it is usually presented in a graphical form so that we can see how good our trading method is, and how risky the trade is. it is thus easier to find solutions for the development of trading methods.

as far as I know it is our representation in forex trading, if it exceeds 50 percent it means you are wrong to use your system and your floating is already very severe need to be replaced

Drawdown is a rate of decreasing our balance due to floating minus that we experience in trading, and the minimum value of this drawdown is increasingly quality trading

Draw Down is usually used as a parameter of the quality assessment of a person's trading, so the smaller the drawdown value will be more quality our trading

drawdown or DD is an opening or amount of floating that occurs when we trade, if it is above 10% then it is certain that you do not use a good MM

by definition I don't understand, but all I know is that our floating minus portfolio is all, because I also don't have mql5, and I'm not too far away, it's important I trade enough that's all

Drawdown in Forex is the difference between the initial balance and the current account Equity. When your Equity balance is lower than your initial balance, it means you are in a Drawdown. For example, you start trading with a net balance of 100,000 US Dollars, then you see that your Equity balance is now 95,000 Dollars. This means, the amount of Drawdown in your Forex is 5,000 US Dollars
