YES

I and many other people have been expeirencing a frequent bug where profits seem to spike and dip at random points for no aparent reason. I've been hoping that they'd be fixed soon as it's become rather hard to tell what my actual profit is.

My profits for last month (filled with random spikes):

I think these profit spikes still exist

predicted YES

@xyz I think they came back recently, noticing them more last month or so

Haha, I accidentally split my comments between two different questions!

I have reason to believe these are the byproduct of testing in production rather than in a development environment. So nothing to fix technically…

this isn't a bug per se, it's volatility in the price of your shares. Though I also dislike it, I doubt they'll change to an algorithm that doesn't display it. Would love to lose my bet on this one though.

@L I assumed it was volatility at first, but whenever I have an upwards spike I look at my high value markets to see if one has jumped, assuming that I could sell and cash out the profit. I can never find the culprit, and so can never actualise the profit. So then I thought there must be a bug involved as well.

@Fion huh!
