Account Ballance Lower Than it Should be
Account Ballance Lower Than it Should be
13 Nov 2020, 23:30
Hi, today I noticed a strange thing. On one of my copy trading accounts my ballance is lower than it should be. I was charged more than the fee emails state.
Initial deposit 200
ROI 131.87%
Fees withdrawn: 73.87 (email proof)
Ballance 369.84
How is that possible?
Ballance should be 389 not 369!
Has anyone faced this before?
Thank you

Hello Panagiotis,
below I shall explain with screenshots the curent state of the account:
So we have an Account with 200 Eur deposit that made till today +134.26% profit. Meaning that the profit + initial ballance = 468.52
Now the withdraws as strategy fees are 73.87. So 468.52-73.87 = 394.65. That should be the ballance. But the ballance is 373.66. and that is my question , how can this be happenig?
Thank you

Hi trdrn,
Your calculations are wrong. You assume that ROI is equal to P&L change but this is not the case. You can read more about how ROI is calculated here.

Ok I understand...
I would like to split the amount to 2 same strategies. How can I have 2 subaccounts copying the same strategy? Is that possible?

Hi trdrn,
You cannot have two subaccounts following the same strategy under the same account. To achieve this, you will need to create a new account and start following the strategy from that account as well.

It is not the topc but I thing is a great opportunity to pass you this:
i think that it is mandatory to implement the Relative Drawdown in the Copy Trader Stats. There is only max ballance DD that do not shows us a clear picture. Only relative DD will show the real risk involved with the specific copy profile and make us able to choose. To know what is the risk and not only see the profits. I have seen many accounts that were doing good for months Blown in a day. If there was R DD those accounts should have been avoided.
my point is that winnings are worthless if we do not take into account the risk we have to take in order to make those results. Relative Drawdown is the first thing an experienced trader looks for.
Thank you
