No, their numbers were hardly related to the market at all. Even if they were it wouldn't be hard take daily turnover or price changes into consideration when they made up their numbers. They did reduce the payout over time, but that was to make the scam last longer and not because market conditions changed.
I published some charts a few tens of pages back, sometimes their profits were proportional to market volatility, which has decreased this year steadily. Their result reporting changed indeed to prevent negative results at some point, and lower positive results.
