I have set a few trades to 'return % of incoming' with a value of 150
I'm expecting this to mean that TP will try to return 1.5 times whatever comes IN from each trade (is my understanding correct?)
After a few days with this setting my 24 hour stats for two of these trades are as follows:
Trade 1 - IN: 193 OUT: 473 CLICKS: 441 RETURN: 245
Trade 2 - IN: 81 OUT: 123 CLICKS: 176 RETURN: 152
The second one looks fine (return is close to 150) and I have a couple of others with return values of 153 and 164 - but the first one seems to be way out.
I have no forces or boost settings for that trade - what might I have overlooked?
Thanks,

Well, I reduced the return % to 110 but the measured return is still over 200.
I suppose it's possible that this particular trade is getting a lot of toplist OUTs - but in theory, TP would reduce the skim OUTs correspondingly, wouldn't it? So to exceed the limit it would have to be getting almost exclusively toplist clicks. Anyway, I'll temporarily remove it from the toplist and see what difference that makes in the next 24 hrs...

Trade return % of incoming will FORCE to return at least X amount you set, but after that it trades like normal trade....so if U set return 150% and your script thinks(by default algo) trade deserves more compared to others it will send more....you can fix this issue by capping trade to 150% for example.

AHA :) That makes complete sense now - and yes, what I want is a limit of 150 so I need a cap - thanks ip0li
So, if I set, say, a return of 120 and a cap of 150 will that mean that TP will try to keep the return between 120 and 150?

yep, it will try to return minimal of 120 and max of 150.
