ROI

HI

Is there a problem with the ROI calculation

I'm not questioning mrh and his 14,000% gain although if he has done that well overnight then nice pick and next time can you let me know what your picking .

however my ROI has dropped around 500% overnight yet yesterday I made a very small gain.

Did you get a cash payout from the survey? I believe that would impact the ROI.

Hi,

The only thing that changed yesterday was the payout for the survey. If a trader had only deposited a small amount of money, the survey money will have bumped that up by a reasonable percentage.

It's interesting to note that one or two traders, who, having had deposited less than the $20 to qualify for ROI, (and thereby flying under the radar ) have now had their total deposits pushed over that 20 mininum. Presumably due to the survey payout.

My guess is that's why we suddenly have a new #1 in the top traders.

Hi ITeam

Thanks for that I see why my ROI changed significantly down because the payout from the survey has gone in as a deposit and not a gain.

which obviously changes the calculation of ROI.

I got an email today saying I had been paid for completing the survey. My ROI dropped fairly steeply overnight, so I assume I have been paid. I just can't seem to find any reference to it in my history. Am I looking in the wrong place? Where should I be looking?

From the portfolio page, click history, then scroll right down to the bottom of the page.

There you will see transaction history, which is where the record of the "Grant" will be.

Don't worry, it took me a while to find it too.

1. Click on Portfolio
2. Click on History (left hand menu item)
3. Scroll down, after the Trade History you get the Transaction History (deposits and withdrawals). The survey money should be at the top, labelled as type "Grant".

(I got $7.70, yay).

Edit: Beaten by iTeam, that'll teach me to take so long making a post.
