    If you would agree that you are looking for the 2.60% you see under %Gain in the Backtest data at the bottom, it should be the CAGR you want.

    ?

    No, my answer makes no sense. I only now understand what you’re asking.

    Eh … I want that too ?

    are you sure to have these screen from the same platform ?

    You try to compare two different environment

    i repeat what i’m saying

    screen with %  -> demo platform

    screen without % (only gain)-> live platform

    i don’t think i’m wrong..

    I tried to add % Gain on my Demo Platform (backtest) and it is not available to add (so that supports Makside).

    That would be the CAGR I showed. No ?

    CAGR is compound annual growth rate, ie how much growth per year to arrive at the total gain.

    I think what he wants is (total gain) / (original capital) x 100

    Doesn’t seem to be offered in the customization options, but pretty easy to calculate.
