relationship between drawdown and margin call

 

Hi,

Backtesting via the Strategy Tester reports the following drawdown variables:

- Balance Drawdown Maximal

- Balance Drawdown Relative

- Equity Drawdown Maximal

- Equity Drawdown Relative


If I want to avoid a margin call of 50%, which indicator should I pay attention to?


Thanks
