What amount does the results from a strategy analyzer displayed in percent (as opposed to currency) refer to. I can't seem to find what number the percent results refer to. So, for example, if the max drawdown is 4.10% and and the cumulative profit is 4.75%, what initial investment is NT7 assuming?
In currency display, there doesn't need to be an initial investment stated to see how much money the program profits and draws down, but what does the percent display go on?
I read the description in the help guide but I don't under stand how the percent drawdown can be the same when starting the analyzer from way before the max drawdown in cumulative profit and when starting it right before the max drawdown in cumulative profit. So if I start the analyzer so that the cumulative profit reaches 10,000 and then the drawdown is 1,000 making the cumulative profit 9,000, the strategy analyzer doesn't seem to show the percent drawdown any different from if I started the analyzer so that the cumulative profit only reaches 2,000 in cumulative profit before the drawdown happens. How does it calculate the percent profit and percent drawdown?
Thank you very much.
