Calculating ROI

    Default Calculating ROI

    I'm trying to do this for the first time.

    Is this right?:

    (Total amount paid in incl. reg fee / total return)*100

    Should total return be total profit? i.e. if I win a $5.50 and get $22.5 back, should I take that as $17?

    return/amount paid

    so $17/$5.50 in your example

    What about games in which you don't cash. Is return -5.50 or 0?

    -5.50

    If you're always OTM then your ROI should be -100%

    Eek, what's a good number here? Mine's not great

    I'll take cover - 26.2% ???
    ITM = 45%

    For the $5.50 normals a long-term ROI of 25-30% should be achievable.

    EDIT: Your ROI and ITM stats are fine.

    Also, this is only over about 200 SNGs.

    And that dash made it look like -26.2% when it's +ve baby!
