I installed the extension but I'm not seeing the Drawdown+ nor many of the tabs I selected in Preferences in the Strategy section.

Is there something else I need to do?

I'm running 6.9.19.0 64 bit.

Thanks.

The thing is that your Strategy is run in Raw Profit mode which has no concept of "drawdown" or "equity" for that matter because there's no starting capital by definition. So a good deal of performance metrics (e.g. Sharpe ratio) aren't available in RP mode, and a number of visualizers won't show up.

Hint: In the Preferences > Performance Visualizers list on your screenshot it can be seen that "Applies to" is set to "Portfolio Simulation" for Drawdown+.

Please switch to a Portfolio Simulation sizing. For more detail check out the Wealth-Lab User Guide (Help menu) > Reference > Data Panel > Position Size Control.

You're welcome.

P.S. Added to the already existing Wiki FAQ: One of the Performance Visualizer tabs is missing.
