YCGH Drawdown Percentiles

304
What This Indicator Does?
The Drawdown Percentiles indicator tracks how far below the all-time high (ATH) a stock or asset is currently trading, then displays statistical percentiles of historical drawdowns in a customizable table.​

Percentile Analysis: It collects up to 5,000 historical bars of drawdown data, sorts them, and calculates user-selected percentiles (default: 10th, 30th, 50th) to show where current drawdowns rank historically.​

Visual Display: A table shows each percentile threshold with color-coded drawdown values, helping you quickly assess whether the current drawdown is typical or extreme compared to historical patterns.​

Practical Use Cases
Risk Assessment: Identify if current drawdowns fall within normal ranges or represent extreme conditions requiring position adjustments.​

Entry/Exit Timing: Use percentile rankings to time entries during historically shallow drawdowns (better conditions) and reduce exposure during deep drawdowns.​

Strategy Comparison: Compare drawdown patterns across different assets or trading strategies to evaluate risk-adjusted performance.​
