So you want to know

£100 start, D1

What D1 is as a % to your starting share

I wouldnt know how to do that, say D1 = 1000, 100 start, 1000 bankroll = 10x profit

as a % i dunno, D1/100*?

Are you including your £100 stake as winnings or taking it off your winnings?

bearing in mind if you using £100, the new amount will always be the profit gained/lost

matt, that wont work cos d1 is my new amount

basically i have 100 at start, and d1 is my current balance. so if it was 200 in d1, it should say 100% profit. 100 in d1 being 0% profit

use 4 cells

stake (100)
balance (1000)
profit in £'s (900)(f1) =d1-e1
percentage (900%) = f1/d1*100
