Actually, the annualized return after compounding is 16,777,215% - you forgot to deduct the principal.
you're right...what the hell was I thinking...besides...If you can't even eeke out 300% a month trading you should be selling CARS!
Sure. Take a simple case of doubling your money in one period of time, say a year, which we know is a 100% return. The formula for the rate of return is : (1+1)^1 - 1 = 1 To convert this to a percentage, we must multiply by 100, giving us 100%. So my friend, you forgot to (1) subtract the 1 (principal), and (2) multiply the final result by 100.
Double damn! You're right again. I may have to change my name. In my defense, it has been just over 19 years since I studied finance in school. Further, we did not deal in percentage returns calculated in the billions, so I guess I'm out of my elements. I guess I just lost my compass amidst all those digits. Humbling indeed.
You're a lying sack of shit. 90% of your post's are you posturing in a shameless manner for business. 300% every month. ROFL!!!!! So 36 months ago on a beginning account balance of 10k if compounded at 3000% a year you would be worth 297 MILLION DOLLARS. Oh but I know you're not worth that much cause the liquidity in ES just dosen't allow you to trade 800,000 contracts at a clip. LOL. Baron, ban this prick.
