Unrealised gain / loss

Also called: profit, gain, loss, p&l

How much your holdings are up or down compared with what you paid. It's "unrealised" because you haven't sold yet.

Formula

Gain = Current value − Cost · Return % = Gain ÷ Cost

Worked example

1. Current value = £5,400.00
2. − Cost = £4,800.00
3. = £600.00
4. Return = £600.00 ÷ £4,800.00

Result: +12.50%
