Ok so I was way over 100% and at the top of the chart and now I'm down over 90% WTF happened??????
I don't care if I win or not, it was fun being at the top and 8% still aint bad. I'm just looking for an explanation.
Thanks. |

Well, you obviously made more trades, which added to your "portfolio funds" - thus increasing the denominator in the equation:
Return = (Earned/Portfolio Capital) |
