Nothing crazy and everything is correct. You have set NON-ZERO "Interest rate"
and that's why you are getting these results (as interest rate is calculated
from "remaining"
money the value of interest is greater on "long only" and "short only" sides
then on "all trades" column.)

Quick answer. The backtester works. No question about that at all.
So, you have wrong settings, wrong code or other problems.
If you post some code and what equities you are trading, then we can

Maybe you have a default commission or slippage, or
you earned interest on the short positions. Check your
settings and the settings as they were set during the
backtest.
