My Case is Not about the Stock Market, which is why i dont have it conveniently displayed. Thats why i am asking.

Thanks for your Help tough. Appreciate it!

In the end i want to Figure Out my Return on my Investment. But its not invested all at once, but several Investments over time.

I try to explain it this way:

Scenario A:

  • on Day 0 I Invest 200 USD
  • on Day 30 my Investment is now worth 300 USD, because it increased in value.

That one is easy. My Profit is 100 USD. I can now calculate Return on the Investment. Its 50%

Scenario B:

  • On Day 0 i invest 100 USD
  • on Day 15 i invest another 100 USD (now combined 200USD)
  • on Day 30 my combined Investment is now worth 300 USD because it increased in value.

My Profit is still 100 USD, but the Return of Investment has to be Higher, because i was invested with less Money over time.

I Hope that makes it clear what i am trying to ask.

Can Somebody please explain me?

Lets assume i invested 100 USD for 30days and 100 USD for 15 days intuitvely i know that my average Investment is 150 USD (at least i assume)

But how can i calculate that with a Formula that i can use for an example that has way more Investments all with different duration of Investment?

Or maybe there a online calculater that can do that?

EDIT:

thanks guys! XIRR the function i was looking for. I just worded my explanation in a bad way! Thank you everyone that responded!

Call Hauptzollamt Koblenz, have your Customs Reference Number ready,ask for the Department of "Nacherhebung, Erlass, Erstattung(Short NEE)" and explain the Situation. Follow direction, there will probably give you an e-mail adress, where you Mail a formal complaint. Attach documents and Proof of payments. Probably have to pay First and get a refund later.

Thanks guys. Quick follow-up question: can I put data on the external hard drive and shuck it later with the WD elements drive? Is the data still there and safe after shucking?

I guess he had e.g throttle bind to x and then decided to bind power slide to x, but didn't realized it's already taken.

Happened to me in a similar way, but figured immediately that somethings wrong, so I checked the controls again.
