Sorry, I couldn’t find a formulas page, but how is Total System Equity calculated?

Chad:  
  
  
  
Think of it like the value of a brokerage account. People don’t really say: “How is the value of my brokerage account calculated?” The value of simply the amount you start with minus what you lose plus what you gain.

Matthew,  
  
  
  
Are all of the values in the Model Account Status table delayed by the number of days requested by the system vendor? Even Open P/L?  
  
  
  
Thanks,  
  
Mike.

Matthew,  
  
  
  
For transparancy, disclosure and compliance reasons should not at least the open P/L be shown?  
  
  
  
On another note, I have not even gotten around reading your first novel. Which one should one start with? Any Hollywood offers yet? 🙂
