The Return
column pretty much shows that. It's the difference between the average buy price and the current price, multiplied by the number of shares. If it's positive, that means your average buy price was lower than the current price. If its negative, then it's the opposite.
Are you looking for the difference per share?
I am looking for something like Avg./Share
, next to Price/Share
(to the left). I think having this value, in addition to Return
would be beneficial. In some of my positions, I look to "average down" so having the average cost per share would be very helpful in this case.
Does that make sense?
I understand, but basically the same data is already shown as return. You'd average down if your return is negative and you buy shares, since you're average price per share is above the current price. It just doesnt show it like that since it's overall return (I found that more useful when developing it). I can look to add a tooltip or column though if you need to see the price per share, and not just overall return (which is (current price
- avg. buy price
) * number of shares owned
)
I would like to see the price per share, but if it's not something that makes sense then don't worry about it. I can always consult with my iOS app.
With the latest code push I added a average buy price column
It would be nice to see the avg. versus the current price to quickly evaluate if your position is positive or negative when considering a sell.
