TYVM for your hard work! A really enjoyable platform.

I have some suggestions, maybe you find some time to implement them:

  1. Alpha , Sharpe Ratio, Sortino Ratio, InfoRatio are calculated incorrectly both on main sim tab and detailed report. Are used TotalReturnForThePeriod instead of AnnualReturn.

  2. The Return on Return Tab should be possible to be viewed as compounded annually too.

  3. Annual Return is an important information and should be reported on main (Results Overview) simulation too.

  4. Maybe a choice to see it as % will help too at least for Alpha, Volatility, Return, MaxDD with one decimal.

  5. Please use the same number of decimals for output. No more than 3..4 digits in a number.

  6. Drawing in the gradient Green-White-Red background would be very nice for detailed tables.
