Portfolio drawdown chart

Show how far below the peak, and for how long.

Short answer

Show the drawdown as a fill below zero over time, with the deepest point marked: depth and duration read together. To explain the current drawdown, add a waterfall from the peak to today by asset.

The portfolio peaked at $12.8M and stands at $12.3M, 3.8% below, 41 days later. BTC took $0.21M, ETH $0.18M and SOL $0.16M; stablecoin yield gave back $0.05M. A new high needs +4.0%.

The fill shows how deep and how long; the waterfall shows which assets dug it. Put it under the widget while in drawdown.

Common mistakes

Drawdown from the start value

Drawdown runs from the running peak, not from where the year began.

Only the depth

Duration hurts too. Show days since the peak.

Hiding the maximum

Mark the year's deepest point; it sets expectations.

Questions

What is a drawdown?

The fall from the highest value so far, as a percent. It is zero at every new high.

Why does a −3.8% drawdown need +4.0% to recover?

A loss is a share of a bigger number than the gain that repairs it: 3.8% of $12.8M is $0.5M, which is 4.0% of $12.3M.

Can I draw it from my own data?

Yes. The chart is drawn from your rows (date, value, drawdown) and lays out again for its size; nothing is scaled.

Does the underwater drawdown come in every size?

Yes: XS, S, M and L, each laid out again for its size, in light and dark.
