Correspondence chess rating bug

Ahoy!
About 5 days ago, I started to play some correspondence matches. So far so good, I have won all 5 of them! As I was looking at my stats though, the graph showed a weird image: it indicated that my rating dropped, and then improved (to a rating weaker before the drop), but my rating showed at the left (below classical) and below the graph that the correct is the one before this strange manoeuvre. Is everything okay, and the graph bugged, or there's something else behind it? If the first, why did that happen, and if the second, what's wrong with it then?

Thanks & cheers

Happened to me too. When u play tw games at the same time, only the one tht ended at the end counts, to prevent someone from playing 1500 at the start and tht way boost their rating up
I could see how that works out, but after I finished some of my games, I got 21 points from a 1500-rated player, which seems fair for someone rated about 2050 in its 5th game. That does not explain the problem with the graph though.
