Welcome to Quantopian!
That's definitely not a pretty result. You're not exactly incinerating money. . . more that it is evaporating. =)
When you see a steady march down like that, it's a strong hint that you are getting eaten up by transaction costs. It looks like your algorithm is making 60 trades per day as it opens and closes each position. At the default commission of $1, that's $60, or .6% of your starting capital each day. Your trades aren't anywhere near profitable enough to overcome those costs, and your value is drained away. If you set your commissions to zero, and increase your capital, you'll start seeing a different result.
My biggest suggestion on your code structure is to use pipeline instead of get_fundamentals. Pipeline is much more powerful and extensible, and get_fundamentals will be deprecated at some point. The time you spend learning pipeline will be well rewarded.
I'd also suggest that you do some of this early work in the research platform. The backtesting environment is intuitive, and a lot of new people start by using the backtester. However, the research environment is much more powerful, and you can do a lot more analysis there. You really only need the backtester after you've proven the idea to yourself in research.
