Mine is always correct. You must be doing something wrong.
(just kidding)
I have some time coming up this summer to review the process and figure out why some folks have weird numbers and others do not. |

Dave,
I believe it has something to do with the way "added portfolio funds" are treated in the calculation - I'm not sure, but the way it is currently set up may involve adding that amount to the amount earned from investments to calculate total return, which would by why everyone's returns get so big. That would be my starting point...  |

That sounds pretty logical to me. Open balance of $41,773.00 and ending balance of $1,915,021.00 for this month and my return on the "last months retunr is as stated above @ +4,484.35%
Last month open balance was $34,808.50 and the ending was $41,773.01 it says my return was 20.01% but it was actually 73% or something like that. |

73%...Da fackt is dat you was down 10% fo da mumph with about 2 days ov trading left. Then you discoverd P.C.P. n CCPCP and went "all in" in hopes somebody would buy another 100 shares to add to the 2500 total shares that traded that day and move the price from da bid of $2 dallahs to da axed ov $4 dallahs. Since nobudy was stoopid enuff to do it in real life you probly went ahead and did it yerself...just to make yerself look like you know what you are doin in funny muny games. If it was me runnin this show your entire 70%+ gain would have been DQ'd for that munth. If fokes wanna see how well you typically do using actually buy/sell limits they can simply go to Cramer's land o'da lost dot bomb and click on the "mumphly competitions" section to see how well you did fo May. I'd say those retoins are mo typical of a PCP smokin foo caught up in REEFer madness.  |

I think if you scan your computer you'll find this little bugger has planted itself in you hard drive. Very hard to eliminate this grimasimo virus once it has infiltrated your system as most of us already know!
It's better to just live with it than to confront its relentless onslaught.
