I was thinking something a lot simpler. For instance, let's say on my H$1.25 billion port...

Posted by: Panachevitz on Apr 17, 19:56 in response to Guillo's post once more.

...I made 10 million today.  If you go on a rate of income per million in my portfolio, that equates to $8,000/million.  If a new H$2 million port made $75,000 today, that would be a rate of $37,500/million.  I'm not really sure if the math works since I'm pretty tired, but my larger port size would be theoretically negated and the two of us would be on a theoretical even playing field for purposes of seeing who the better trader is.  Instead of using percents to rank, you would do it as best cash rate, straight up. I'm not sure if the free cash giveaways should be included or not.

The equation should be pretty simple: you made x millions today/however many millions y your port is worth.  You might even use yesterday's net worth instead of today's in order to avoid the natural increase that would lessen your rate (ie: my $1.25 billion port made $10 million today. It is now worth $1.26 billion.  If you use today's $1.26 billion my rate shrinks to $7936/million instead of $8000/million like above).  At any rate, those are along the lines that I was thinking.

Is there a way to change rankings to something that eliminates port size from the equation? Panachevitz Apr 14, 13:04

Well stated. I had mentioned this when leagues were first made possible, but, it does hold for general comparisons. edzep Apr 14, 16:57

I will sugest a table ranking concept but if you care for an easy purely math solution what you need is expresion like this Guillo Apr 15, 04:14

A = 1/log(X, 10) * C abs(Y) (1+Z) or A = 1/log(X, 10) * C Y (1+abs(Z)) Guillo Apr 15, 05:20

A = 1/log(X, 10) * C abs(Y) (1+Z) or A = 1/log(X, 10) * C Y (1+abs(Z)) Guillo Apr 15, 05:20

A = 1/log(X, 10) * C Y (1+abs(Z)) will work better. {nm} Guillo Apr 15, 09:03

I'm going to take your word on it. If I tried math I could probably crash the virtual HSX economy. LOL! {nm} Panachevitz Apr 16, 19:18

I see. However.... Guillo Apr 17, 20:39

The other problem is that large ports can not be fully invested. Market limitations force edzep Apr 18, 06:55

True...but that is compensate (offset) by the fact that they earn interest (crap interest but interest) in their cash part. Guillo Apr 18, 08:35

Interest doesn't even come close to an offset for sidelined money. edzep Apr 18, 13:31

Then again, that number is really small expecially considering the 100K increase in holding movies, like maybe less than a hundred ports . {nm} Panachevitz Apr 18, 10:27
