| | Collective2 reports two different values for the annual return of my system. Here are the values that are reported at the following locations:
123.8 main trading system website
123.8 TOS website
123.8 The Grid
97.1 Most Popular Systems website
97.1 Hot Systems website
97.1 Hot Stock Systems website
What is the reason for the difference? |

One figure is compounded, one is not.
I agree this is confusing - the two figures aren't always labeled clearly. I hope to be able to make it more clear which figure is which (compounded or not) in the various stats labels. |

What is the C2 Score?
Collective2 rates every trading advisor in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating. One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader. Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index. Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent trader will be rated more highly than a trader with erratic results.
