Annualized return FAQ
Why annualize a return?
A 2 percent return in 10 days is very different from 2 percent in 90 days. Annualizing scales each trade to a full year so you can compare them fairly.
Which trade is best?
All else equal, the trade with the higher annualized return uses your capital more efficiently. But always weigh the annualized number against the risk of each trade.
