My natural human tendency to defend myself when qattacked despite there being no apparent benefit in doing so is a weakness I will have to work on.

Attached is screen of YTD gains in my main IB account of 271k. Screen shots can be edited too, I know. I expect this to be the next accusation.

OP, does max. monthly drawdown of 5% mean your worst month finished in red by 5% or something different? Could you please elaborate.

Yes thats what it means.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't results audited on a monthly basis? So monthly draw down seems meaningful to me. I know peak to trough draw down is probably more meaningful but is something like that included in audited results?

Maybe I am new to forums but I never understand the entire transparency thing that seems to go on. Why is it anyone else's business (unless they are a potential LP) here on the web to confirm another persons trades? I mean what are you cretins going to do validate him by giving a thumbs up, it makes no difference, this is a waste of time.
