It's a running total. Did you add them all up?
A running total of percentage gains is meaningless. If you invested $1,000 in each of 1,000 stocks and made 1% ($10) on each a running total would show 1,000% gains instead of the actual 1% that you made. You started with $1,000,000 and end up with $1,010,000. Not exactly the $11,000,000 required for the reported 1,000% gains.
P.S. These are real trades, we make the trades that we post with real $.
Then instead of the meaningless running total post the gains of the actual or model portfolio that reflects these trades. It may be quite impressive, but there's no way of telling from a running total. |
