>>> Down 22% since starting

just a thought on calculating returns
if you start with a set amount and do not add or subtract it is easy

if I recall you began with something like $100,000
but you continue to add and add and add to the point that you are well north of $250,000 of initial investment in your buys

you may find if you use your "average investment" that the return is more like down 30% plus assuming a cash account and -60% in a margin account

as i said just a thought
