Hi,
I am running the forex system Fundamental Positioning Plus Scalping. I’ve had exactly 3 losses, for $3, $5, and $8. But my average loss is listed as $9. An hour ago, it was listed at $24!
Are these kind of small errors normal?
Thank you!
Hmmm… The problem seems to be resolved now…
…Sorry. It’s happening again. It makes my system look a lot worse than it is, so I’d like to get this fixed.
Thank you! …Anyone listening?
System-wide stats are calculated on a delayed basis, so things like average wins and loss may be delayed for several hours.
As you build more of a track record, a delay of less than 24 hours for most stats is not really meaningful.
Well, not to be difficult. But I just don’t see how a $3, $5, $8, and $2 loss average to a $68 loss as listed on my system’s home page now, even with a delay.
…Are unclosed positions used in the calculation, perhaps?
Yes, both open and closed positions are included in all calculations.
Got it! Thanks!
