Measure the biggest drop from peak to trough.
Calculate maximum drawdown using your highest account value and your lowest account value.
Maximum drawdown shows the largest percentage drop from your account peak to its lowest point. It is one of the clearest measures of trading pain and volatility.
Two strategies can have similar returns, but the one with lower drawdown is usually easier to stick with.
