Rate of Return Calculations?

Mathew when I go to my signal Conservative Growth I see it annualizes 82% a year. When I look up Conservative Growth in other areas such as system finder it shows 79% a year. I understand one is an annualized return and the other simple.

When I go to Conservative Growth and compare it to another signal such as Defiant. I see Defiant has been around longer than Conservative Growth so the chart starts at 8-3-07, the beginning of Conservative Growth. The Annualized gain showing there is 124% yearly?

I have questioned this in the past and I understand one is annualized and the other is simple. What formula are you using to get the 124% yearly in the signal comparison?

Thanks Rick Haines

I’ve wondered the same thing, too.

Mathew are you going to be able to fix this? I show a lot of people your web site. Signal comparisons are one of the best tools you have. I find it kind of awkward to testify to the validity of Collective2 when this particular statistic is so far off.



Thank You
