On
investment help page some numbers are wrong.
(9.9677*0.5*0.01) + (9.6774*5*0.01) + (9.3548*10*0.01)
= 1.4691885
!= 1.46919354
Also in the above of it, you calculated investments of user :
A user won 1 btc from bankroll
before after kelly
1 -> 9.96774193 (.5)
1 -> 9.67741935 (5)
1 -> 9.35483870 (10)
3 -> 28.99999998
It shouldn't be 29.00000000? Where is that 2 satoshi went?
Hi, thanks for pointing that out. I rounded these numbers to 4 decimal places for speed in the forum post that I took this text from and so you are correct, the numbers don't add up to exactly what it shows. If you were to substitue the numbers properly they do:
(9.96774193*0.5*0.01) + (9.67741935*5*0.01) + (9.35483870*10*0.01) = 1.46919354
And again with your other example it's just rounding them for easier post in forum.
I'll update the faq page asap with the correct figures.
Don't worry though, the actual calculations on site are done to larger precision and so there are no rounding issues like that.
