## Where it is

ScreenPortfolio, Returns and Risk tabsBasic

The Returns and Risk tabs of a portfolio page, under the band "Model since you invested: <strategy>, not your portfolio". Basic and Advanced.

Index in this video: [Large Cap Multi Asset](/strategies/largecap-multi-asset) (the sample portfolio).

## What it means

A portfolio page mixes two sources. Yours: the hero, the key figures (worked out from your own weekly value), Holdings, the Compare card's "You, live" bar, Where the return came from (your holdings), your trades at the top of the History tab, and the Ledger. The model: Return figures, Year by year, Drawdowns, Risk figures and the other cards on those tabs, and the model trade book and rotation on History, show the linked strategy's model since the day you invested, each tagged "Model since you invested".

## The formula

Your figures come from your holdings, cash and money in and out. Model cards come from the linked strategy's model history, from the day you invested.

As computed in the RupeeCase app`Your figures: live holdings, cash, your money in and out
Model cards: the linked strategy's model history, from the day you invested
Charges: yours on the Ledger; the model's on the strategy page`

## Worked example

Example only

* You invested on 1 Jun; your portfolio is +6% since
* The model since 1 Jun is +8%: a model card shows +8%
* The 2 points: your dates, top ups, fills and charges

## How to read it

* Look for the band and the "Model since you invested" tag.
* Your own return is in the hero; the model's is on the tagged cards.
* Your own charges are on the Ledger tab.

## Watch out

* The tab names match a strategy page, but here most cards are the model.
* A model card is not your portfolio: fills, timing and charges differ.
* Just after you invest, model cards may have too little history to fill.
