| Seems to me the way you get the % of your return up is off. I trade on 2 different sites including this one and I finished off last month with over 85% return on my money. (10,000) at the start of the month. Seems to me no matter how much I make the % just doesn't seem correct. Any idea's or help? |

| The percentage here is off, I think the discrepency gets worse the more you flip things. That and my desire for long-term tracking is why I keep tally myself. |

Other Sims have it easy. You start with X and where you go from there just figure out the % gain.
eInvesting is a living ecomony with cash constantly being made and spent. We had to do the math a little differently. We are working out a way to figure it out though. |

| I agree it is off I am returning well over 50% and mine is only showing 27%.....My problem is I flip alot of stocks. Already this month 18 buy and sells. I just keep track of my profit. e$ invested for me is 30,864 and my net is 16,580 so it is about 55%. That to me is the important number. I know my percentage on the game is diluted but for me I just want to see how much money I can make. |

Are the MIT boys making progress figuring out how to do that? |
