no it is the cumulative return on investment, deposits don't effect that, that wouldn't make sense.....I think you are thinking of the balance - the balance is the combined effect of all deposits, withdrawals and investment performance...

the balance goes up if you make a deposit and it goes up if you have some ROI, goes down if you make a withdrawal - it is a very good number for measuring what it is you are talking about.....

the cumulative return on investment just tracks the investment performance while eliminating the effect of withdrawals and deposits and initial balance and all that.....that is why it comes as a percentage.....

Buying low, selling high is a tough way to make free money, this is easier.
