It seems that money management is the key in Pipstrider especially when aggresive strategy is used. It is all described in Pipstrider docs. The crashes are part of the strategy -- the point is to withdraw the money periodically, so that you always have enough money to feed the account when it happens.
Any way to fill in the time gap? It would be helpful if your data could go back 8-10 years.

Still sounds scary to me.
