cant seem to find the answer in the manual. It stays the same regardless if i change my equity starting amount. edit: talking about the detailed report window under “closed positions list” from a backtest.

There u go. It dosnt seem to look at “change in equity” and i cant find info about it in the manual so i got no clue..

Edit: look at the bottom numbers thats €6x.xx, vs their % numbers. Weird

I always assumed it was price position closed at divided by price position bought at times 100.

So you buy 1 contract at £13160 and close it at £13225.8 which is £65.80 or a 0.5% relative performance gain. You’d need to check the buy and sell prices to confirm this as it is just my assumption.
