thanks for all the info everyone!

but the price paid/sold formula wont help me for this. thats not quite what i was looking to do.

I am looking at overall profit from trading. like over a certian amount of time not per trade profit. (the platform I use has a breakdown per trade already built in)


the only other thing I need to figure out now is how calculate what my true roi will be when I start making withdraws from my trading account.

Im not opposed to using an excel worksheet (although I kinda like to crunch certian numbers manually I typically dont do budgets or profits with a hand held calc)

truth be told Im not sure exactly what I need! but so far mj's formula is the closest thing to it.

I just need to figure out how to use that as a base to try to muddle thru the rest. (like when I start withdrawing)
