Hoggums : I have calculated again the accumulated and i dont see the mistake you say. For me now +23.23 % is correct. I can have more than one opened trade because I execute the trades with CFDs with 10 -20% margin per trade so I can have 4 or 5 opened positions at the same time. A profit warning can close a trade with a 10-20% loss but also can close it with a 10-20 % profit. In the long term profit warnings have no effect , one day you can have a huge loss and another a huge profit.

Hello DWT,

Firstly - good luck, and well done so far.

I suspect Hoggums point is that although the returns you've posted aren't in question, the overall % may be subject to debate.

EG - you have 2 positions open (say each equivalent to a stock holding of £1,000 - so tatal exposure £2,000) - each returns 2%. I believe you would calculate this as a total accumulated as 4%. However, within my portfolio I would record this as a 2% overall gain.

Hoggums - apologies if I've misrepresented you.

All the best,
UTB

THE BLADES : I have to repeat the same answer, I trade with CFDs so I only need 10 -20% margin per trade and due to this I can have 4 or 5 trades opened at the same time.

Apologies dailyworldtrader for your thread being slightly hijacked. I've deleted my posts that are not relevent to your objective.

I do find KIMRUNNER funny though. I'm sure many people do.

KIMRUNNER - If you do read this final little post. I believe you are all set up to fail. You seem to have a need to be right. That is a dangerous need indeed.
It seems to me that not only do you have a need to be right, you simply assume it from the outset.

Who moi ?
I hardly need to be right and certainly never assume I am.
If however you are referring to KIMRUNNER then you are accurate.
