Profit graph 討論

Hi there,

How about a graph showing actual profit starting at zero. This would be similar to the balance graph, except it would smooth out the effect of deposits and wihdrawals to a certain extent.

Also would it be possible to 'weigh' the profit % in line with the balance. As an example, I can have a month of 100% profit on a $1000 account but if I were to add $100 000 the next day, my performance would drop to 1%, which is not really representative. This would be of particular interest to money managers because, at the moment, each time funds are added by new clients, the results are watered down.

Anyway, thanks for a great site.

It is possible to add a profit chart, another solution might be a tick box to remove deposits/withdrawals off the balance chart, which will then redraw the chart instantly, would that be sufficient?

Regarding the profit calculation - this was actually the original method used to calculate the yield factor.
This method was abandoned as it doesn't reflect the true yield on an account, so for example one could make a 100% return on a $10 account, then deposit another $100K, so it would appear as he did 100% on the 100K account which is not correct.
Both methods have their flaws, but the current method is much more transparent to the follower of the system.

You can observe the growth chart, which isn't affected by withdrawals/deposits.
