| I see the gain but what I am saying is that until all your stocks become cash in your hand and not in the market there's no real gain. If you sold out right now you would have some gain for sure but if you wait and something changes quickly then you sell overall you could have lost money from your initial total investment in this account. I'm not denying that you show a realized gain on that one stock. But until all your stocks(your whole account) are converted to cash you can't say that you've made more money than you initially started with. That $6784 doesn't exist as profit until you sell out. If you sell everything right now you would have a great profit right now but until you do you don't know what you'll have in your account at the end of the day. Just because you've won one hand on a poker table doesn't mean you will leave the table with cash if you keep playing.
