Running WLP6.8 with a strategy on AAPL over 15 years, $1000 yields $123,993.77 in profits.
The performance shows 9 trades with average profit of $13,777.09 or 1,382.43%.
The $13,777.09 I can believe, however, the average %-profit per trade should read 13.8243%.
It appears that the percent-profit-per-trade calculated by WLP6.8 is off by a factor of 100.
This also applies to the percentages shown under winning and losing trades.

Out of curiosity, what was it? Did it have to do with misconfigured regional settings on your PC?
