GET Watermarks

Returns the high-water mark and current PnL statistics for a monitored account. Watermarks track the peak realized and unrealized P/L values during a session and are used by the Account Manager's kill switch logic to determine when thresholds have been breached.

This endpoint is server-side only and does not make an RPC call to the NinjaTrader add-on. The data is read from CrossTrade's session cache, which means it responds instantly and does not require the add-on to be connected at the time of the request.
