Hi there,
You don't seem to understand how ROI is calculated. ROI is calculated based on equity and not on balance. Please take some time to understand the ROI equation below

I have no obligation to assist you, I am a trader like you. And personally I do not see a problem. There is an obvious drawdown from 517 to 400 which is more than 20% claimed in your original post.
It is around 24% which is what is displayed now in your strategy page.
Hello, I thank you for the assistance. I can see the screenshot you posted clearly, but the balance at the time of the dropdown was €500.78, and then there was a loss of €100.01, which brings the balance to €400.77.
Every time I had a balance above €500, I withdrew funds in order to consistently work with the same capital and strategy. I don't understand if I am making a mistake or if I am not grasping something correctly!
I repeat, the strategy operates with a stop loss set at the time of the trade, so there is no possibility of a floating drawdown.
Thank you again for your possible response ;-).

I am well acquainted with ROI calculation, which is why I am communicating with you. It appears that you are not assisting me in resolving the issue!!! At the beginning, you wrote that you did not see a 31% on my equity, and I showed you screenshots where it was clearly 31%. Then, you mentioned that I had a loss exceeding €117, when in fact it was €101, and I presented you with the precise screenshot showing a loss of €101. Now, you are writing that I do not understand ROI and that it is calculated on equity? The calculation of ROI, as you wrote, is indeed based on equity and not on the balance. However, the positions work with a fully automatic fixed stop, so there was no fluctuating loss greater than what I showed you, which is €101

Hi there,
You did not lose €100. You lost at least €117, if not more.

Hi there,
Note that the ROI is calculated based on equity. So based on the highest equity I can see on the chart the drop was probably higher. Therefore the ROI drop seems to make sense to me.

I don't understand what is calculated if from +31% with a balance of €500, I lose €100, you can see for yourself that I had a loss of 20%.

Thank you, but it doesn't specify whether an equitystop can be set at $0, if I want to leave the risk open without an equitystop, isn't it possible?
At the moment the platform makes me set an Equity stop of $44, but can I enter $0 and risk all my invested capital?

The strategy is over a year old, otherwise I wouldn't have written the post. It started around May 19, 2022. Please verify the dates.

Ok I understand, but so I have to keep a strategy that scores -100%, it's not nice, ok I can count on myfxbook, but for those who exclusively use Ctrader copy... it's bad publicity´ for me as a strategy provider.

Two examples of my strategies, if you find me the 104 $ drawdown or 40%, there has never been.

DRAWDOWN
As can all be correct, it can be seen from the graph that there was no 40% Drawdown for the first and not even 57% for the second and even less 104% for the third strategy, which would entail a total loss of capital. .
try to double check the equity and the drowdawns, I connected everything on myfxbook and these percentages do not appear.

Problem with withdrawing the maximum balance.
He reports to me an incorrect Drawdown on all strategies even by 40% which never occurred.
some even 100%, unbelievable.
https: //ct.topfx.com/copy/strategy/54112 ( a DrawDown of 40.02% is reported which never occurred.)
https: //ct.topfx.com/copy/strategy/54326 (57,18% Drawdown is reported which never occurred.)
https: //ct.topfx.com/copy/strategy/54327 ( 104,61%!!!!???? Drawdown is reported which never occurred.)
