Equity curves still show sharp retracements.
Have you considered employing daily stop loss rules ?
Also, you need to show/track win rate %.

My win rate is displayed on every of those reports. MT5 shows 60% for trade by trade, and QA shows around 85% daily win rate.

As far as sharp equity curve, that's something I have accepted. In this business you can either lose small more frequently or take big hits occasionally. It's possible to make money in both situations. I just prefer the steady wins and focus on custom recovery when big hits occur.

My golden goooses MNQ and M2K fucked me up sideways today. They had 2.5 months of good run. But today got killed by slippage.

For whatever reason, market is really not letting me grow beyond 10k equity. I keep getting knocked down when i get beyond that level.wtf is going on...

Back to recovery mode

Make your system adaptive to lower volatility.
Wish you would post the date/time on the X-Axis instead of the trade #.

That is unusual. Technically you should be able to trade it until EOD Monday the 21st, since LTD is 3 business days before the 25th calendar day of the month prior to contract month. But I guess some brokers get wussy lala and restrict it even more.

P.S. I see now that volume has flipped to January as of tonight's open.
