Hope you recover soon. Not sure about your account size but if it’s less then 1 million that would be a 1 day DD of 6% or so. I know personally I wouldn’t feel comfortable with a DD like that (even if it’s only for a short time).
I hope you don’t mind me asking, do you have a strategy how to manage DD risk or you just focus on the end closing results?
