Can Anyone help and Explain??8 Aug 2022 16:07
I've had this happen before and can't figure the maths out.
First Purchase
Bought 3k shares at 88p, so minus stamp and transaction fee, I was about £30 down from purchase.
Second purchase
Bought 3.5k shares at 81p.. minus fees £30 down from purchase.
Now today, sold Second purchase of shares and made my profit.
But now first purchase of shares showing value of £2900, but £35 in profit?
If this makes sense to anyone, can they explain why my first purchase of shares is now worth less?
Each time I've bought and sold the same amounts or shares.
E.g 4000 shares Bought... prices rises 4000 sold
