Drawdown
main · number
What it does
How far equity has fallen from its highest point so far, from the run's performance.
What happens
Read from the engine's live execution context each candle — it reflects the current run (position, equity, time, trade history), not a computed indicator.
When to use
Risk gates — stop opening new trades when drawdown is deep.
Gotchas
- This is the CURRENT drawdown; use Max Drawdown for the worst seen.
- Compare it against a threshold.
