Simple (linear)
Change = capital × (daily rate ÷ 100) × days. Each day adds the same dollar amount. Earlier days are not folded back into the capital.
Linear and compound
Estimate a linear or compound result from capital, a daily rate, and a number of days. Running it does not change your balance. Actual trading can be lower, flat, or a loss. Past examples do not predict future results. Capital is at risk.

Change
$182.50
Total $232.50
Formula: change = capital × (daily rate ÷ 100) × days. Plug-in: $50.00 × (1 ÷ 100) × 365 = $182.50. Total = $50.00 + ($182.50) = $232.50.
These inputs match example 1 on the overview: $0.50 added each day. That pattern will not happen in real markets. About $228 is a rough approximation of the $232.50 total.

Change = capital × (daily rate ÷ 100) × days. Each day adds the same dollar amount. Earlier days are not folded back into the capital.
Total = capital × (1 + daily rate ÷ 100) raised to the number of days. Change = that total minus the starting capital. A constant rate every day will not happen in real markets.
