The opinions expressed in these forums do not represent those of C2, and any discussion of profit/loss is not indicative of future performance or success. There is a substantial risk of loss in trading. You should therefore carefully consider whether such trading is suitable for you in light of your financial condition. You should read, understand, and consider the Risk Disclosure Statement that is provided by your broker before you consider trading. Most people who trade lose money.
I agree. MK is confusing Market to Market accounting requirement (buying power, margin, etc.) with basing statistics also on Market to Market (which clearly is not a requirement). He does this merely because it is convenient for him, even though it is grossly inaccurate and misleading. All statistics (including equity curve) should be based on closed trades and realized losses, to be considered accurate.
