The gain stats isn't displayed correctly , there is to much difference between Absolute gain and Gain.

http://www.myfxbook.com/members/stevetrade/cast-iron-man/9591 is flagged as 61% gain in the Systems section.
I posted on cast-iron-man:

Your deposit was 3651, your equity at the moment is 3734, thus your return on capital is only 2.28% over an eight month period and not 61% as indicated. When one does a search your system is flagged as 61% gain which is incorrect.

On his site http://stevetrade.wordpress.com/ he prominently displays 61% gain, it is only 2.28% gain actually.
