The performance is calculated based on Balance.
If there is a button to switch to show performance based on equity it would be great.
Forexfactory has such function.

I think that performance should be based on min(balance;equity)

(I'm a pessimistic guy)

Balance go UP, when you close Positive trade, never mind that there are many other Negative trades.
You can control this process.
Equity go UP, when price move in direction of your position, even if you do not close any trade.
You can only predict this movement with some probability.
These are two completely different point of view.
We are looking for Equity, buy if you cant made Balance, you will not get Equity.
