Coming up with the previous months percentage isn't always 100% correct for some reason.

You finished 5th last month with 10.81% monthly percentage. I took a screen capture of the rankings at the closing bell on teh last day of the month.... see this thread: http://einvesting.com/viewtopic.php?t=5225

Thanks,

Over 10% return for a month is still a very nice return. Congrats!

It's a glitch in the system, that Dave has yet to fix. I think it just calculates the difference of what you started our with and what you ended with. So if you had 10K to start and ended with 27,429, that would be your 174.29% gain. Supposedly it should take the final portfolio percentage of the month, but it does not always.
