Understanding Position Metrics

Average Entry Price

The average price you paid for your shares, calculated across all your buys. Helps you understand your cost basis.

Current Price

The current market price for one share. Updates in real-time.

Total Value

Current price × shares owned. What your position is currently worth.

Unrealised P/L

Total value minus what you originally paid. This is “unrealised” because it only becomes real when you sell.
  • Positive = unrealised profit
  • Negative = unrealised loss

Analysing Positions

Winning Positions (Current > Entry)

Consider taking profits or holding if you expect further movement. Set a mental exit target and stick to it.

Losing Positions (Current < Entry)

Review your original thesis. If it’s no longer valid, cutting the loss frees up capital for better opportunities.

Break-Even Positions (Current ≈ Entry)

You’re neither up nor down. Decide whether to hold and wait for your thesis to play out, or exit and redeploy capital.
