Hi guys help me here with an calculation...
So if MTI claims to trade with a 1% daily average, the investor’s cut is mos 0.4% right? So the investor gets the profit devided by 2.5
1 - So lets say I trade with R100 at 1% daily return (weekdays and compounded daily). After one year I would have made R3651.04 interest. If I devide that by 2.5 to calculate the investor’s cut, I get R1460.416 which is more than 14 times the initial investment
2 - If however use the 0.4% as the interest rate from the get go to calculate the yield of R100 after a year, I get R328.84 interest wich is just over 3 times the inital investment.
So herein lies the rub for me. According to me, the correct way to calculate the investor’s cut is the first calculation: 1% yield every day, devided by 2.5 evey day.
The results the investors seem to get from the back office, however, reflects results more towards calculation number 2 (even the website’s calculator indicated a +- 3 fold yearly growth when it was still up) which I think is dead wrong.
You can only devide the yield by 2.5 at the end of the day. You can’t devide the interest rate by 2.5 before even starting to trade.
Right?
