Frequently asked questions

How do I calculate stock profit?

Subtract the total cost of the shares from the total you received when you sold them. Then add any dividends you were paid, and subtract the fees if they were not already included.

Do fees reduce my profit?

Yes. Buy fees add to the cost, and sell fees reduce the amount you receive. Both lower the net result, so include them for an accurate figure.

What is a break-even price for a stock?

It is the price per share at which you would get back exactly what you spent, after fees and dividends. Below it, the position is at a loss; above it, the position is at a profit.

Does this include taxes?

No. Taxes on gains and dividends depend on your country, your tax bracket, and how long you held the shares. Check with a tax professional or your tax agency for the amount due.

Can I use this for shares I still hold?

Yes, enter the current price to see the result as it stands now. Treat it as unrealized until you sell, because the price can change.
